CSR Connect 2025

Connecting businesses with sustainable charity projects

About the Event

Join us for Connect CSR 2025—a fast-paced, two-hour online event where corporate pioneers, grassroots leaders, and change-makers will come together to explore how corporate – charity partnerships are advancing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Real Projects. Real Impact.

You’ll hear first-hand from the communities facing today’s most pressing challenges—local leaders and beneficiaries sharing what real impact looks like and how CSR programs can be shaped to truly uplift lives.

Alongside them, corporate case studies will highlight companies that have already stepped in—sharing how partnering with grassroots projects has not only created social and environmental impact but also brought real business value: from brand growth and staff engagement to new market insights and reputation uplift.
