New York-based IPA 100 firm CohnReznick LLP (FY21 net revenue of $673.3 million) has launched a new awards program to recognize U.S.-based businesses that are going above and beyond in their ESG strategies and practices. The firm expects the Gamechangers in ESG Awards to be an annual program, with applications for the inaugural event due by June 30 and awards to be announced in the fall.
Specific awards include the Gamechanger of the Year and a Next Gen Award for students who provide creative solutions that address ESG challenges in their schools or communities. Award-winners determined by a diverse panel of judges will receive a professionally developed video or written case study showcasing their ESG story; national recognition and promotion via the CohnReznick website, social media, nationwide press outreach and marketing programs; and recognition at a virtual award ceremony.
“Businesses are understanding how ESG is becoming a significant driver of value, customer preference and competitive differentiation,” says CEO David Kessler. “Our Gamechangers in ESG Awards program offers a unique platform for organizations to broadly communicate their ESG stories to key stakeholders and inspire others to follow in their path.”
