Nestlé needs YOUth!

Helping Entrepreneurs Accelerate Progress Toward the SDGs

Steve Krouskos
Ernst & Young

At EY, we believe everyone should be able to contribute toward and share in the benefits of economic growth.

When these businesses work better, the world works better, which is why helping to accelerate their growth and impact is a vital part of fulfilling our purpose of building a better working world. more[...]

Six Ambitions Based on the UN’s SDGs and Included in our Strategic Program

EDF Group

In 2016, we decided on six corporate responsibility goals. They mark out the path we have set for ourselves to achieve our CAP 2030 strategy and take into account the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) laid down by the United Nations.
