Corporate Social Responsibility

As a society, we will not succeed in creating a sustainable world if we focus merely on doing more efficiently what we currently do. The same is true for organizations, and we all have a responsibility to adopt sustainable business practices and nurture innovation in our communities.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) seeks to positively impact a number of disturbing social and environmental trends throughout the world: threatened ecosystems and social support systems; wider gap between the rich and the poor; lack of access to real knowledge, even in a sea of data; and growing concerns about the effects of globalization.

Innovation 360’s unique approach to CSR and Innovation for Sustainability and Society answers the following questions:

• How can we ensure that sustainability is part of your organization's innovation strategy and creative process?
• How can we ensure that sustainability and society are part of the management of the innovation development process?
• When and how can external viewpoints enrich the innovation strategy, creative culture and innovation deployment process?
• What processes are most likely to leverage the society collective experience for innovation?
• How do market conditions and for-profit organizations affect the environment, social responsibilities and the health of citizens?
• How can the market reward social innovation, thus leading to the way to sustainability?

With our open innovation partners, we are working to deploy open innovation networks around the world to balance the goals of corporate social responsibility and business performance, enabling companies across every industry to achieve superior results in their sustainability programs.
