Nominees must present a holistic narrative supported by data – articulating how sustainability has been integrated into their organizational DNA. We expect verifiable documentation of impact, supported by internal reports, third-party audits, or certifications. Initiatives that engage supply chain partners, improve worker livelihoods, or promote circularity will be viewed favorably. Cross-border collaboration, innovation in rural contexts, or significant carbon footprint reduction will also be considered strong differentiators.

Core Criteria
• Measurable Results: Demonstrated sustainability outcomes within the last three years across energy, water, waste, emissions, labor rights, or community upliftment.
• Integration into Business Strategy: Sustainability initiatives must be embedded into the operational and growth model, not just CSR or one-off projects.
• Innovation & Scalability: Use of innovative methods or technologies, with potential for replication across geographies or sectors.
• Alignment with Global Frameworks: Adherence to standards such as UN SDGs, ESG benchmarks, or science-based targets.
• Transparency & Reporting: Clear communication of sustainability metrics, progress tracking, and external audits or certifications.
• Five-Year Roadmap: A forward-looking plan showing ambition, accountability, and resilience with defined sustainability milestones.
