As the only network in Ireland for responsible business we work with Ireland’s most progressive companies on corporate social responsibility.Our Cork Business Forum will bring together business leaders from across Munster to discuss the latest trends in CSR.

You will hear from many local companies from our network on how they are changing their operations to meet the challenges of a new global business age.The event will also profile how Business in the Community Ireland is partnering with local companies and organisations to tackle social issues in the Munster region.

Finally you will hear about the Business Working Responsibly Mark, our CSR standard based on ISO 26000 and audited by the NSAI.This networking breakfast forum is a critical date in the diaries of business leaders in Cork and makes it a must attend event.
