Environment

Sustainable or socially responsible entrepreneurship is an integrated vision of entrepreneurship, in which you seek a balance between people, planet and profit.

More and more organizations are making their business operations more sustainable, purchasing in a socially responsible manner and increasingly choosing to do business with other sustainable companies in the chain. Structured attention to sustainability and the environment is becoming increasingly important.

In the meantime, we can say that successful entrepreneurship is not possible without a sustainable approach. Research also shows that there is a positive relationship between sustainability policy and the (financial) performance of organizations.
