Enable Ireland-Microsoft partnership recognised as CSR best practice

This week marks the second annual Corporate Responsibility Week in Ireland, an initiative driven by Business in the Community Ireland (BITC).

As part of the Corporate Responsibility week, BITC have published the fifth "Inspiring Excellence" publication, which provides case studies on Corporate Responsibility initiatives and projects undertaken by companies in Ireland over the past twelve months.

To celebrate the fifth year of the Inspiring Excellence series, BITC brought together a judging panel to select the top ten best practice case studies from 2003-2008 and Microsoft's partnership with Enable Ireland has been selected as one of the top ten, along with entries from BT, IBM, Intel, Irish Life, Manpower, Oracle, Savills Hamilton Osborne King, Ulster Bank and Vodafone.

You can find out more about the partnership between Microsoft and Enable Ireland here.
