Parivartan Awards: Driving Sustainable Change

With every passing year, resources are getting used up and becoming more scarce in the process of meeting the demands of the world’s economy. According to World Business Council for Sustainable Development, the supply of energy and material resources needed for industrial growth is expected to rise to 170% of the earth’s bio-capacity by 2040. Needless to say, sustainability is gaining paramount importance.

Parivartan (a Hindi word which means change) is a forum that aims to bring various organisations to a platform where they can discuss about how sustainability can improve business performance.

Recently, India Carbon Outlook invited nominations from firms for Parivartan 2011 Awards to recognize and showcase companies that have used innovation for making their products, processes, facilities and operations sustainable. The jury comprises of leading brands, buyers, industry players and influencers from four sectors i.e. automotive, packaged food and beverage, IT and IT enabled services and textile and apparel.

‘Parivartan 2011 Awards for Sustainability and Innovation’ would recognize and showcase companies that have, in their own innovative way, tried to make their products, processes, facilities or operations sustainable. Through Parivartan 2011 Awards, companies will have an opportunity to present unique innovations in products and services in front of an international audience and discuss sustainable and innovative business case studies with them. There would be sessions to attend and plenty of networking opportunities!

The winners of the Parivartan Awards 2011 would be announced at the Parivartan 2011 Awards Ceremony on March 24, 2011.
