Social Impact Award is the winner of TRIGOS 2019!

What do a bicycle delivery service that employs women in Uganda, a Russian company that produces 3D printed affordable prosthetics for children, and an Austrian startup that does modular, innovative shelters for homeless people have in common? They are all alumni of Social Impact Award! All these businesses and individuals we supported around the world are the reason we have won “TRIGOS 2019 Award” in the category of “International Engagement”, at the TRIGOS Gala on June 12, at Marx Palace in Vienna.

All these businesses and individuals we supported around the world are the reason we have won “TRIGOS 2019 Award” in the category of “International Engagement”, at the TRIGOS Gala on June 12, at Marx Palace in Vienna.

 

TRIGOS Gala gathered 220 guests from the world of business, politics and civil society, eagerly following who will take home the prestigious award for companies that embody responsible action in their core business. In a video message, Federal President Dr. Alexander Van der Bellen shared his appreciation for all the companies that contribute to Austria’s future viability.

We also want to take the opportunity and congratulate other companies who won “TRIGOS 2019 Award” in their respective categories – Vollpension, Deloitte Future Fund (with the program found!), hollu Systemhygiene, Neuburger Fleschlos and Lenzig AG.

TRIGOS is the most prestigious award for responsible businesses in Austria. In 2019, a total of 147 nominations were received, and six companies were awarded in six different categories. The award recognizes companies who are role models, contributing to the sustainable future of Austrian society, economy, and environment.
