Why the Climate Champion Award?
The BCCTaipei Better Business Climate Champion Award will recognise a company operating in Taiwan that has made significant strides in reducing its carbon footprint and demonstrated leadership in climate action.
The science is unequivocal: to limit global temperature rise to 1.5°C, we must achieve net zero emissions by 2050 at the latest. We are seeking companies that have implemented effective measures to reduce emissions and actively contribute to this global goal.
The UK is a global leader in climate action, and we aim to spotlight a company in Taiwan that has shown similar leadership during the 2022-2023 period. We are looking for companies that have integrated climate action into all facets of their business operations. This includes raising awareness among stakeholders, collaborating with supply chains and partners to reduce their carbon footprints, elevating climate action to the board level, and participating in specific climate-related initiatives.
This award, sponsored by Eiger, is the first of its kind. It provides a unique opportunity to highlight your company’s climate leadership. The winner will be selected by our judging panel and promoted through the British Chamber of Commerce in Taipei as the Better Business Awards 2024 Climate Champion.
We encourage companies of all sizes, British and non-British, operating in Taiwan to apply.
Judging Process
Companies will be evaluated based on their performance, including any ongoing projects in Taiwan from December 2022 to December 2023. Submissions and evidence must cover activities within this timeframe.
We are looking for specific actions that companies have taken towards:
- Reducing their carbon footprint
- Acting as a climate leader
The judging panel will shortlist three companies from all entrants. The same panel will select a winning company, which will be announced at the Award Event on 25th September 2024.
*Note: In order to ensure fairness and diversity of awards, the winner of last year cannot reapply for the same award this year, but can apply for other award categories.
