In 2006, we were one of the founding members of the GRI Tech Partnership
The GRI Tech Partnership
The GRI Tech Partnership is a group of software providers that are working with the GRI to closely align their software and toolsets with the GRI Framework.By working with the GRI to closely understand the Reporting Framework and the potential needs of a technology-based reporting community, these Tech Partners are adopting a long-term leadership position where they can develop future software with an enhanced understanding of the GRI and the software needs of the reporting community.
Since many of the GRI’s products and services, including education workshops and online educational services, are increasingly technology based, it is mutually-beneficial for software providers and the GRI that technology solutions are supportive of the G3.
Future 500 PartnershipFuture 500 is a non-profit, based in San Francisco, Tokyo, and Beijing, whose mission is to forge links and build relationships between brand name companies and their external stakeholders to advance the triple bottomline. We specialize in stakeholder engagement, aligning our corporate partners such as Coca-Cola, Mattel, Owens Corning, and others, with concerned citizens, social cause advocates, environmental and human rights groups, social investors and others. This process of stakeholder engagement serves as a natural expansion of a company’s market R&D. It brings the systematic consideration and integration of a broader set of external stakeholder expectations into business planning. When done right, stakeholder engagement helps companies anticipate and address the complex economic, social and environmental challenges posed by rapidly increasing globalization, contributing to innovation and competitive differentiation. A win/win for companies and stakeholders.
- By tracking the development of global stakeholder standards, which helps companies make better informed management, sourcing and marketing decisions.

- By bringing companies and stakeholders together to help establish leadership programs that build corporate brands and deliver social and environmental benefits
