At ICOSA, we believe CSR plays a vital role in building a sustainable and forward-thinking business. In 2022, we made the proactive choice to rethink our ethical, social, and environmental strategy, to become not just a player in the innovation economy, but a more responsible and conscious organization.
Ethics are a cornerstone of our CSR strategy. Beyond our client work, ICOSA is committed to fighting corruption, upholding human rights, and ensuring that the company plays a responsible role in society.
In September 2022, we proudly joined the United Nations Global Compact, aligning ourselves with its 10 universal principles across four core pillars:
1.Support and respect the protection of internationally proclaimed human rights
2. Ensure we are not complicit in human rights abuses
3. Uphold freedom of association and the right to collective bargaining
4. Eliminate all forms of forced and compulsory labor
5. Abolish child labor
6. Eliminate discrimination in employment and occupation
7. Support a precautionary approach to environmental challenges
8. Promote greater environmental responsibility
9. Encourage the development and diffusion of environmentally friendly technologies
10. Work against corruption in all its forms, including extortion and bribery
Our social responsibility is guided by a deep respect for individuals and their integrity. Every decision and policy are shaped by high standards of fairness, inclusivity, and care.
We invest in the well-being, development, and inclusion of our team members, and actively promote professional and social integration through our work in intellectual property consulting.
We recognize the urgency of the climate and energy transition. At ICOSA, we are committed to reducing our environmental footprint and embedding sustainable practices into every decision we make.
This includes:
Supporting decarbonization efforts
Encouraging eco-responsible habits internally and with partners
Evaluating the long-term impact and coherence of our business activities
Championing innovative practices that address pressing environmental and societal challenges
For us, environmental responsibility is not just an obligation, it’s a driver of innovation and competitiveness.
