The Awards showcase transformational stories of businesses taking real action to build thriving communities and celebrate those businesses demonstrating strong, inclusive leadership, who continually innovate to tackle pressing social issues and to repair and rebuild our planet.

Previous winners in all categories have shown remarkable innovation, creativity and a sustained commitment to corporate responsibility; demonstrating the positive impact they’ve had on society and in their business.

They celebrate the power of partnership, shine a light on best practice, and demonstrate just how much business can be a force for good in society, tackling some of our biggest and most challenging societal issues.

We will announce the winners at a gala dinner event at the ICC Belfast in Belfast on 17 September 2026.
