Sustainability meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It is a process of continual improvement.

In business, this means that in addition to financial performance, a company prioritizes its social and environmental actions. A sustainable business strategy is a long-term view that helps identify operational efficiencies and new opportunities, mitigates risk, and positions the company as a desirable place to work and invest in.
