The CSR Stakeholder Forum is an initiative of the Department of Business, Enterprise and Innovation.

Want to learn what Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is and how it can benefit your business and benefit society?

In today's challenging business environment businesses need to drive their competitive advantage to succeed - but in a responsible manner. CSR is about going 'beyond compliance' and not just meeting regulation but exceeding it - making your business more competitive and resilient.

Businesses and organisations that embed CSR at the heart of their business can become more resilient by:

• Driving sustainability

• Attracting and retaining talent

• Fostering social cohesion

• Protecting the environment.

Join with some of the country's leading CSR experts, award-winning businesses, Government Departments and State agencies for an expert workshop to see how your business can develop its CSR strategy.

Featuring Business in the Community Ireland, Chambers Ireland, Cork Chamber of Commerce, SEAI, and Department of Business, Enterprise and Innovation.

Additional speakers will be confirmed.
