Sustainability

FBN International together with the United Nations (UN) has launched the first ever SDG initiative for family businesses - Family Business for Sustainable Development (FBSD). It supports families who wish to align and link their activities to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Pledging your support for FBSD is a great opportunity to showcase your commitment to sustainable development and the global trend towards ESG and carbon neutrality.

The FBSD provides a powerful framework as a family business to measure your SDG impact
