Founded in 2015 by Karen Sutton, the Global Good Awards reward businesses, NGOs, charities and social enterprises of all shapes and sizes around the world, that are blazing the trail for purpose-driven sustainability and ethical leadership. They recognise leaders who are achieving practical, real-world impact that is both scalable and replicable – and who have inspiring stories to tell. In 2025, GGA launched the Global Good Finance Awards; aimed at any organisation that is serious about catalysing finance’s potential to do good – whether that’s a major bank or investment house, or a disruptive, game-changing new entrant to the space.
The Global Good Awards is leading the awards sector by walking the talk across all areas of sustainability, and being something of a disruptor in the overall events industry space. In 2018, GGA was the first scheme in the world to be accredited as ‘Outstanding’ by the Awards Trust Mark, retaining it every year since. The rating reflected GGA’s commitment to running a scheme with the highest standards of ethical behaviour and transparency.
The Awards is about building platforms to learn, share and progress ideas; and encouraging the development of engaged and ethical business practices as well as the democratisation of sustainability.
