2degrees is calling for organisations with inspiring examples of sustainable practice to shout about their success stories by entering this year’s Champions Awards.

The only sustainable business awards voted entirely by industry peers, the 2degrees Champions Awards are the ultimate recognition for individuals and companies using innovation to push the boundaries of sustainable business.

Last year’s winners included a range of start-ups, SMEs and FTSE-listed businesses including Unilever, The Co-operative Group, Sky, O2 and SC Johnson.

2degrees Sustainability Champions AwardsOn being voted a winner in 2013, Sky’s Daniella Vega said: “In many ways it’s a lot more powerful and humbling than being selected by a group of judges. There’s something very healthy about being scrutinized by your peers.”

A New Era for Brand Integrity: Navigating the Greenhush-Greenwash Spectrum

Join us as leaders from Republik, NielsenIQ, Conspirators, Henoscene, be/co, The Guardian and Room & Board analyze what newly expanded notions of brand integrity mean for brands, and how to be smarter about picking language choices that avoid the dangerous extremes of greenhushing and greenwashing — Thurs, May 9, at Brand-Led Culture Change.

But perhaps what makes the 2degrees Champions Awards so different to the multitude of other awards schemes out there is the power it holds as a stakeholder engagement tool. And not just for those companies who win, but for all those who even enter.

From asking your employees to vote or, like O2, bringing your commercial teams to the ceremony, the 2degrees Champions Awards is “actually an engagement tool in its own right. Even if you’re not a winner,” says O2’s Katie Hyson, “you can drive the enthusiasm and interest in that particular project.”

What’s clear is that the 2degrees Sustainability Champions Awards is an awards scheme like no other in that, from a stakeholder engagement stance, at least, they create many winners before a vote has even been counted.

Entries for the 2degrees Champions Awards are being accepted until midnight on February 14, 2014.
