Special commendation for "transformational technology" from FT & IFC

The FT/IFC Transformational Business Awards and Conference celebrate innovative initiatives that contribute to significant progress in sustainable development around the world.

This year, the events built on the momentum generated by the United Nations’ 2015 Climate Change Conference (COP 21). One focus was on the challenges climate change bring to developing economies, particularly in urban areas, and on groundbreaking private sector solutions that are addressing those threats or have the potential to do so.

Global thought leaders from the public and private sector also debated the role that the private sector can play in meeting the recently adopted Sustainable Development Goals—in particular the targets around food security and health—and how new technology and disruptive models can be applied to tackling global challenges. The awards also reflected these themes.

We were delighted to receive a Special Commendation from the judges. It is an amazing platform to get our message to the organisations who can help us address the people who need it the most.
