Vodafone’s ‘Saving Lives through Mobile Technology’ was chosen as one of the best 10 examples of innovative best practice in CSR from almost 200 case studies collated by BITCI from 2003-2008. This was chosen as it brought together a fantastic partnership with Vodafone and The Irish Blood Transfusion Service Board and created a powerful programme tackling a key social issue of sustaining the national blood supply in Ireland. To celebrate five years of Inspiring Excellence, we invited an independent Judging Panel to select the 10 examples that they believed to be the most innovative and outstanding. The examples were chosen from each of the five areas of Corporate Responsibility; Marketplace, Workplace, Community, Environment and CR Management & Communications. Each year, Business in the Community Ireland (BITCI) collates examples of best practice in corporate responsibility. Called ‘Inspiring Excellence’ the purpose of the collection is to shine a light on best practice in our member companies and in doing so, to engage and inspire business in Ireland as a whole, to communicate their own responsible business activities. www.bitc.ie
