Challenges Facing Businesses in Relation to Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility: Discussion
Mr. Tim Griffiths:
There is a very good Irish-founded organisation called ChangeX which has starter packs for social entrepreneurs. You can see how an idea like that is working in another community and then you are given the opportunity to replicate it in your community. It started in Ireland and now has a significant footprint in the United States and the Nordic countries. There are successful examples. That is fine because it provides the tools but sometimes it comes down to putting in money and needing investment to do it.
