Launching for the first time in the Philippines, the Sustainable Business Awards (SBA) is a global platform established by Global Initiatives and PwC to help increase awareness of corporate sustainability best-practices and demonstrate the benefits of sustainability to companies.

After accomplishing a comprehensive self-assessment questionnaire, the final winners were decided by a national advisory panel which includes the likes of Senator Loren Legarda, Philippine Stock Exchange CEO Hans Sicat, PwC Philippines Chairman Alex Cabrera and Bonar Loreto, the Executive Director of Philippines Business for the Environment.
