The 2023 MB100

The 2023 MB100 are an outstanding group of leaders combining profit and purpose. Curated by an expert panel of 29 judges, the winners were chosen from over 800 applications, representing 93 countries, and were scored across five key areas: Durability, Impact, Innovation, Leadership and Scope.

The 100 individuals include social entrepreneurs, CEOs, sustainability leaders and impact investors from 39 countries, all working to tackle the world’s most pressing issues.

The year-round award programme, supported by EY, Hogan Lovells and Babson College, is designed to help these leaders succeed by providing access to a range of pro-bono services, investment opportunities, potential customers, capacity building resources and a global community of peers.

30 judges contributed their expertise to select this year’s Meaningful Business 100 winners. Representing organisations like Google, the United Nations, the Rockefeller Foundation, Temasek and Mastercard, the judging panel reviewed 881nominations, from 80+ countries.
