We hope you saw last month’s announcement that The American Sustainable Business Council (ASBC), the nation’s foremost business advocate for an environmentally safe and equitable economy announced a strategic alliance with Social Venture Circle (SVC), the country’s foremost social impact networking organization. Read the full press release. | |
| “Together, we’ll be much stronger and more effective than either organization could ever be alone, and this new influence will give us a uniquely potent ability to build the large-scale movement of profound economic and public policy change the world so desperately needs. Time is running out, now is the time to act to ensure a just and sustainable future.” -Jeffrey Hollender (Co-Founder & CEO, ASBC)
“This partnership provides the path forward for meaningful change. It is urgent that we move beyond sustainability to regenerative systems; expand diversity to include true social and economic inclusion and broaden the definition of success to include all Stakeholders (including our global community and our planet). With four meteoric events this year that cannot be ignored: a global pandemic, a presidential election, accelerated demand for true racial equity and social justice, and the increased impact of climate change on communities, we need to shift towards deep systemic change. I am confident that the combined voices of the SVC and ASBC members will wield a very powerful force.” -Seungah Jeong (Board Chair, SVC) | | |
