Being a Certified B Corp\u2122 is essentially the business equivalent of Fairtrade and Organic products, showing how we adopt successful and sustainable business practices. We also aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG\u2019s) that are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity. We primarily contribute towards SDG4: Quality Education, and then towards SDG10: Reduced Inequality, SDG1: No Poverty, SDG8: Decent Work and Economic Growth and SDG5: Gender Equality. <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, we share some metrics of impact that stem from our core offerings:<\/span><\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-76927\" src=\"https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Spring-Wide-Impact.png\" alt=\"Spring Wide Impact\" width=\"1158\" height=\"572\" \/><\/p><h2><b>What about our Wider Community\u2019s Impact?<\/b><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the companies we support, we built on the UN SDG framework and developed our Impact Theme Framework, by canvassing out 75 Impact Themes. This helped us capture the spectrum of impact areas undertaken by our community. The chart below shows the SDG scope of our current portfolio of roundtable companies. In general, each of the companies in our roundtables are supporting at least 2 or more of the SDGs. We also share select alumni stories, which illuminate the deeper impact (business and personal growth, as well as lifelong skills) experienced by our community members. <\/span><\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-76929 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/SDG-Focus.png\" alt=\"Spring Roundtable Members' SDG Focus\" width=\"777\" height=\"669\" \/><\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1GA8RQSUC0w6S1oIDIdoDsGxIJQRcXS-_\/view\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-76928 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Download-the-report-here.png\" alt=\"DOWNLOAD THE REPORT HERE\" width=\"300\" height=\"86\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Download-the-report-here.png 300w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Download-the-report-here-100x29.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8212;&#8212;-<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-87 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Sana-Kapadia-bio-pic-e1484787393964-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Sana-Kapadia-bio-pic-e1484787393964-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Sana-Kapadia-bio-pic-e1484787393964-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Sana-Kapadia-bio-pic-e1484787393964-65x65.jpg 65w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Sana-Kapadia-bio-pic-e1484787393964-239x239.jpg 239w, https:\/\/spring.is\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Sana-Kapadia-bio-pic-e1484787393964.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/span><\/p><p><b>Sana Kapadia &#8211; Chief Impact Officer at Spring<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sana has transitioned her career from investment banking and corporate finance to social impact, mission venture capital and entrepreneurship.
