The Hungarian Business Leaders Forum (HBLF) has been a non-profit organisation dedicated to responsible corporate governance for 30 years. HBLF is bringing together domestic and international companies, business leaders and recognized experts. Beyond our member companies, domestic businesses also make independent and collective efforts for the environmental protection and sustainable development. In recognition of this practice, HBLF established the "Business Life for the Environment" environmental award (hereinafter: the Award) in 2000.

The Award, which is announced in an open call for applications, can be given to an organisation with an outstanding commitment to the protection of the environment, and its environmental and economic performance in related activities is exemplary and has implemented a specific project to protect our environment in the years before the applications and in the current years. A project can also be part of a long-term process, if its individual results can be well demonstrated.

Presenting the Award, the Founder intends to promote the importance of environmental protection, the idea of sustainable development, the spread of environmentally responsible management and, in this context, the fight against climate change.

The Award and the publicity will provide an opportunity for those who have directly or indirectly played an outstanding role in environmental protection to present their achievements to a broader audience.
