#ICES2025 Session 28: From Transactional to Transformational: Deepening NGO–Corporate Collaboration is currently underway! Moderated by Mr. Bijay Chowdhury, Group Head – CSR and Philanthropy (Asia Pacific) | Government Affairs, Synopsys Inc, this session highlights how CSR partnerships between corporates and NGOs can move beyond transactions to drive systemic, sustainable impact. Mr. Bijay Chowdhury: “Strategic collaborations between corporates and NGOs can create long-lasting impact when trust, co-creation, and shared goals form the foundation.” Ms. Runa Pathak, DGM – CSR & Sustainability, Jubilant FoodWorks Ltd.: “Corporates are moving beyond the donor role to focus on co-creation. People, Process, and Performance must remain at the core, with volunteering driving teamwork and sustainable transformation.” Ms. Rumi Mallick Mitra, Director – Corporate Social Responsibility, EY GDS: “Flexible funding empowers non-profits to innovate and work towards system-level change. Lack of it limits their ability to move from transactional to transformational impact.” Mr. Kumar Anurag Pratap, Vice President & CSR Leader, Capgemini India: “Sub-funds are critical to support R&D and ensure core staff sustainability. Administrative frameworks should enable—not restrict—impact.” Mr. Amitkumar Naphade, CEO, Krushi Vikas Gramn Prashikshan Sanstha: “Trust is built through honest communication and transparency. Continuous improvement and collaborative planning lay the groundwork for long-term partnerships.” Ms. Shveta Arora, Head – CSR and Societal Initiatives, Nestle India Ltd.: “Strategic thinking and joint involvement are essential. Synergy, Synchronisation, and Solidarity must guide collaborations, ensuring shared goals and convergence for maximum impact.” A powerful dialogue on creating long-term, trust-based partnerships that amplify social change. #ICES2025 #IndiaCSRandESGSummit2025 #CSR #CorporateNGOPartnerships #CollaborativeImpact #SocialImpact #ResponsibleGrowth #ImpactLeadership #TransformationalCSR
