National Business Initiative

The National Business Initiative is a voluntary coalition of South African and multinational companies, working towards sustainable growth and development in South Africa and the shaping of a sustainable future through responsible business action. Since our inception in 1995, the NBI has made a distinct impact in the spheres of housing delivery, crime prevention, local economic development, public sector capacity building, Further Education and Training, schooling, public private partnerships, energy efficiency and climate change. The NBI's current strategy is focused on engaging NBI members in Economic and Social Transformation. The NBI is a global network partner of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), and an implementation partner of the CEO Water Mandate, We Mean Business and the CDP.
