About सबेरा SABERA™

An acronym of Social and Business enterprise Responsible Awards and Summit, सबेरा SABERA™, is true to its colloquial meaning in Hindi, that of a new dawn. A one-of-its-kind annual social impact award and summit highlighting ESG best practices & sustainable development initiatives by corporates, nonprofits, and individuals. Founded in 2018 by the Simply Suparnaa © Media Network, a UN WOMEN Awardee as a community champion, with the larger objective to amplify GOOD in society. The platform has diverse stakeholders and is actively supported by industry stalwarts from large multinationals, changemakers, and policy influencers alike.

Recognize Good. Celebrate Impact. Be the Change.

For सबेरा SABERA™ 2024 Entries are invited in various categories based on work executed between April 1st, 2023, and March 31st, 2024. Check the ENTRY PROCESS here.

Besides catalyzing sustainability & ESG practices through knowledge exchange events and recognizing GOOD through Awards, सबेरा SABERA™ also amplifies voices of change through editorial content as updated regularly on India leadership Blogs and Live interactions of Impact leaders with Simply Suparnaa.

सबेरा SABERA™ is apolitical & non-religious and is not tied to any one majority interest or funder, which allows it to set a truly independent Awards process. The majority of the funding comes from entry fees and sponsorship.

The platform contributes to building a positive narrative of India’s success by acknowledging inspiring stories of impact and development.
