Business in the Community Managing Director, Kieran Harding explains: “The prosperity of business and society is inextricably linked. If every individual business strives to be the best it can be in all areas as a responsible business, the benefits are felt by society, the economy and the environment

“Undeterred by the political situation, it is encouraging to see that businesses from across Northern Ireland are determined to do what’s right for their people, the planet and the places in which they operate. We look forward to congratulating every company that is taking positive action at our Gala event in May.”
