As the #1 global community for values-driven CEOs, Real Leaders celebrates companies proving that profit and positive impact can scale together.
This year’s honorees were selected through a rigorous evaluation process measuring three-year growth, 2024 revenue performance, and each company’s submitted impact application detailing how they are transforming their industries for the better. The result is a curated list of innovative organizations redefining what it means to lead with purpose at scale.
Pure Strategies, a sustainability consulting firm empowering brands and retailers to realize meaningful environmental and social improvement, has been recognized as a Top Impact Company for its leading sustainability consulting work with companies – providing customized sustainability strategies and solutions in climate, nature, and circularity.
