India Sustainable Business Initiative
India Sustainable Business Initiative (ISBI) aims to drive the adoption of sustainable business practices among businesses in India with a keen focus on Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) and agribusinesses.
This initiative addresses the pressing need for businesses in India to align their operations with market realities, environmental sustainability, and human development needs.
By nudging businesses towards sustainability, ISBI will foster a culture of responsible business practices, ensuring long-term success and resilience in a rapidly changing global market.
Why?
Businesses, especially MSMEs, are the backbone of the Indian economy, contributing significantly to employment and GDP.
However, many businesses lack or have limited awareness, resources, and expertise to implement sustainable business practices. This gap hinders their ability to compete globally, meet regulatory requirements, and contribute to environmental and social well-being.
ISBI seeks to bridge this gap by providing businesses in India, especially MSMEs and agribusinesses, with the necessary tools, knowledge, and support to embark on their sustainability journey.
Mission
The mission of ISBI is to introduce businesses in India to innovative and essential ways to run their businesses, aligning with market realities, sustainability, and human development needs.
Vision
ISBI aims to introduce one million businesses in India to sustainable business practices with a focus on MSMEs and agribusinesses in next two years.
