The British Chamber of Commerce in Taipei (BCCT) Better Business Awards (BBA) have become one of Taiwan’s most established platforms recognising excellence in responsible business, sustainability, and social impact. Now in their ninth year, the Awards attract over 100 corporate applicants annually and brings together leaders from business, government, and education.
At the heart of the BBA are its sponsor partners — organisations that do more than support an event, and instead help define the standards of responsible business in Taiwan.
BCCT Chairman Sam Yang emphasised that sponsorship of the BBA reflects leadership through action. In an interview with global leadership media The Icons, he noted:
“Our sponsors are not passive supporters. They are organisations that are actively shaping how sustainability, governance, and social responsibility are implemented in real businesses.”
Vicki Wu, Executive Director of BCCT, added: “The Better Business Awards bring together companies that are committed to making responsible business practical and visible. Our sponsors play a critical role in supporting this platform and in demonstrating leadership that goes beyond words.”
Driving the Energy Transition
Companies sponsoring sustainability and green energy awards are those operating directly at the front line of transition.
Organisations such as Cadeler, PKR Offshore, and Taylor Hopkinson support awards that reflect their daily work in offshore wind, green infrastructure, and renewable-energy talent development.
Their involvement signals that sustainability is not a side initiative, but core to how these businesses operate and grow.
Governance, Law, and Financial Stability
Responsible business also depends on strong systems and safeguards.
Sponsors such as HSBC, Eiger, and PCA Life Assurance support awards recognising leadership, legal frameworks, and innovation for wellbeing — reinforcing the role of finance, regulation, and people-centred policy in long-term sustainability.
Education, Talent, and Global Exchange
Sustainability ultimately depends on people.
The co-sponsorship of the UK Alumni ESG & Education Impact Award by British Council, The Icons, and TutorABC highlights the importance of education, communication, and skills development in turning ESG commitments into action.
Samuel Yang, who is also Co-Chairman and CEO of TutorABC, noted, “Education is the final mile. Without people who can understand, communicate, and implement ESG, sustainability remains a policy, not a practice.”
More Than Sponsorship
The Better Business Awards are not only about recognition, but about convening organisations that are willing to lead by example.
BCCT extends its thanks to all sponsors for their commitment and invites globally minded enterprises to engage with future Awards — as applicants, partners, or supporters — and play an active role in shaping the future of responsible business in Taiwan.
