Sustainability, ESG, and CSR go beyond compliance—they are key to responsible business, enabling companies to thrive while benefiting the planet, society, and future generations.”
— Harsha S, CEO IICSR Group
DELHI, DELHI, INDIA, May 29, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Spark Minda Foundation, the social arm of leading automobile components manufacturer Spark Minda, in collaboration with the International Institute of Corporate Sustainability and Responsibility (IICSR), successfully hosted the Spark Minda – IICSR Sustainability Dialogues– Delhi, reinforcing the importance of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) action in the automobile and manufacturing sectors.

Spark Minda Foundation, chaired by Sarika Minda, is committed to creating equitable and inclusive communities through initiatives focused on livelihood, education, and empowerment. With a vision to bring systemic change, the Foundation leads multiple large-scale programs that blend community development with business sustainability.

The International Institute of Corporate Sustainability and Responsibility (IICSR) is a global institution dedicated to capacity building and training in ESG, Sustainability, and CSR. IICSR offers globally accredited programs and collaborates with industries and policymakers to promote responsible business practices worldwide.

Spark Minda Foundation has long been a pioneer in integrating CSR and ESG values directly into the business ethos of the automobile industry. The foundation has led impactful projects in areas such as youth and women upskilling, employment generation, and inclusion of marginalised groups, setting new standards for ESG in action.

At the Sustainability Dialogues – Delhi, held in Quarter 1, 2025, participants visited two of the Foundation’s flagship initiatives:
Project Aakarshan – A transformative skilling program that has empowered over 17,000+ youth and women across rural and semi-urban India, boasting a 70% employment rate.

Project Saksham – A groundbreaking inclusion program that has upskilled 22,856 Persons with Disabilities (PWDs), with 1,000+ already employed at Spark Minda facilities.

Praveen Karn, Head – Sustainability and CSR, Minda Corporation, shared, “It is time for corporates to think beyond traditional philanthropy and integrate sustainability into their core operations. Spark Minda’s approach is a testament to the fact that ESG is not just a compliance, but a strategy for long-term business resilience and social transformation.”

The event also celebrated academic excellence with the certificate award ceremony for graduates of the IICSR Master's in ESG – Batch 5, a program accredited by the American Council of Training and Development (ACTD) and MEPSC, a sector skill council under the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, Government of India.

Harsha Saxena, CEO of IICSR, emphasised, “Sustainability, ESG, and CSR are not merely regulatory requirements; they are fundamental to the evolution of responsible business. These principles were created so that businesses can thrive while contributing to the planet, society, and future generations.”

The Spark Minda – IICSR Sustainability Dialogues marked a significant step forward in mobilising industries, professionals, and communities to act on ESG imperatives and build a sustainable, inclusive future.

A’qto Cycling Adds Sardinia to Its Italian Tour Collection for 2026

Riders will enjoy diverse daily rides along coastlines, mountain passes, and through mural-covered hilltop towns.Sardinia is perfect for cyclists looking to explore quiet roads, experience mid-range climbing, and enjoy post-ride activitiesThe new tour offers a carefully considered level of difficulty, with a rating of 7/10Combining Coastal Roads, Mountain Climbs, and Authentic Sardinian CultureWe noticed a growing demand for cycling holidays that offer both a satisfying ride and space to engage with the destination beyond the bike.”— Co-Founder, Nancy De LosaMELBOURNE, VIC, AUSTRALIA, June 10, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- A’qto Cycling, one of Australia’s leading providers of boutique Italian cycling tours, has announced the launch of its newest destination for 2026: Sardinia. Running from 20–27 June 2026, the eight-day guided tour offers a new way to explore one of Italy’s most unspoilt regions through scenic riding, immersive experiences, and signature A’qto hospitality. With a maximum group size of just 14 guests, the tour is carefully curated for both experienced cyclists and their non-riding partners. Designed to bridge a gap between A’qto’s existing tours in Puglia and Tuscany, it combines daily rides through Sardinia’s stunning coastal and mountainous landscapes with rich cultural discovery, regional cuisine, and unique local encounters. “We noticed a growing demand for cycling holidays that offer both a satisfying ride and space to engage with the destination beyond the bike,” says co-founder Nancy De Losa. “Our Sardinia tour was designed in response to that, ideal for riders seeking a challenge that sits between our Puglia and Tuscany tours in terms of difficulty, with ample time to slow down and soak in the local culture, food, and people.” The route weaves through dramatic scenery and lesser-known villages, offering moderate but rewarding climbs and a chance to connect with Sardinia’s centuries-old traditions and Blue Zone heritage. The format mirrors A’qto’s much-loved classic tours across Tuscany, Sicily, Piedmont, Stelvio & Dolomites and Puglia, with curated rides, boutique accommodation, regional dining, and a parallel program for non-cycling partners. “Sardinia is wild, beautiful, and rich in tradition. It’s perfect for cyclists looking to explore quiet roads, experience mid-range climbing, and enjoy post-ride activities that truly reflect the soul of the region,” adds De Losa. “We’re thrilled to be adding this destination to our collection.” Tour Highlights Include: - Diverse daily rides along coastlines, mountain passes, and through mural-covered hilltop towns. - Post-ride downtime with optional cultural activities such as wine tastings, artisan visits, and local guided walks. - Exclusive culinary experiences, from a hands-on cooking class with a local nonna to seasonal dinners showcasing Sardinian specialties. - A small-group setting, creating space for connection, conversation, and tailored support throughout. - A Rich Non-Riding Partner Program True to A’qto’s inclusive approach, non-cycling partners enjoy a dedicated itinerary that’s just as inspiring: - A guided tour of Alghero, known as ‘Little Barcelona’, including a visit to a red coral artisan. - A hike through Gorropu Canyon, one of Europe’s deepest gorges. - A scenic boat and snorkelling trip in the Gulf of Orosei, exploring secret coves only accessible by sea. - Cultural activities like wine tastings and a Sardinian cooking class inspired by Nobel laureate Grazia Deledda. Why Sardinia? This new tour offers a carefully considered level of difficulty, filling the space between A’qto’s 6/10-rated Puglia tour and its more advanced Tuscany offering (8/10). It’s perfect for cyclists who want to ride hard enough to feel it, but not so hard they can’t enjoy the journey. “Our guests want more than a ride—they want an experience that’s immersive, authentic, and beautifully paced,” says co-founder Damian Hancock. “Sardinia delivers all of that and more. From the roads and views to the flavours and faces, this is a tour that stays with you.” Sardinia is also emerging as a sought-after destination, not only for travellers drawn to its natural beauty and rich culture but increasingly for cyclists and adventure travellers looking to explore new terrain. “We’re seeing growing interest in Sardinia from both the travel and cycling communities,” adds co-founder Nancy De Losa. “With its quiet roads, wild landscapes and strong local identity, it’s the kind of place that really resonates with the style of travel we believe in.” High-resolution images for press use can be found on this link.

Import materiałów budowlanych z Rosji zagrożeniem dla konkurencyjności europejskiego rynku. Konieczne są zmiany i egzekwowanie sankcji

Unia Europejska powinna zrewidować politykę celną na import materiałów budowlanych spoza państw członkowskich, w tym państw wschodnich – twierdzą uczestnicy konferencji „Bezpieczeństwo gospodarcze UE”. Obecnie Wspólnota nakłada na europejskich producentów coraz więcej ograniczeń, nie rewidując polityki celnej, co przekłada się na systematyczne osłabienie konkurencyjności przedsiębiorstw, spadek produkcji i zagrożenie dla miejsc pracy.

Polacy odczuwają brak wiedzy na temat inwestowania. Może to sprzyjać podejmowaniu nieracjonalnych decyzji finansowych

Co trzeci Polak odczuwa brak wiedzy w obszarze inwestowania, a tylko co piąty chciałby pogłębić swoją wiedzę na ten temat – wynika z badania „Poziom wiedzy finansowej Polaków 2025”. Ci, którzy na własną rękę szukają informacji i porad, coraz częściej sięgają do blogów, portali, podcastów i wideo w internecie. Eksperci przestrzegają, że finansowych i inwestycyjnych porad udzielają nie tylko specjaliści w danej dziedzinie, więc potrzebna jest zasada ograniczonego zaufania.

Do 2030 roku liczba plastikowych opakowań w e-handlu modowym może się podwoić. Ich udział najszybciej rośnie w Polsce

Wraz ze wzrostem kanału e-commerce w branży modowej rośnie liczba wykorzystywanych opakowań, z których znaczną część wciąż stanowią te z plastiku. Do 2030 roku w Polsce e-sprzedawcy zużyją 147 mln plastikowych opakowań – wynika z badania przeprowadzonego na zlecenie DS Smith. Można zauważyć rosnący trend wśród marek modowych, które coraz częściej wybierają opakowania wykonane z papieru lub materiałów z recyklingu. To o tyle istotne, że polscy konsumenci odczuwają wyrzuty sumienia z powodu ilości plastiku, w którym dostarczane są ich zamówienia.
