Giving Back - NGO India (www.giving-back.in)
is the CSR initiative of UBM India. As part of its commitment to sustainable
business, UBM globally, has developed an exciting initiative, UBM’s Community Engagement Series that aims to
provide a platform for the sharing of knowledge, skills, experiences and good
governance across the voluntary sector.
Giving Back - NGO India is a large scale exhibition
supported by a high-content led conference designed to bring
together NGOs in India to share best practices and engage with key stakeholders
including local and international corporates, foundations, government and the
general public. NGOs can exhibit at the event for free. The year 2013 will host
the second edition of the event after the grand success of the launch event in
2012 at Gurgaon, NCR, India.
This is 100% NOT-FOR-PROFIT initiative
by UBM India which attempts to provide a platform for interaction and
knowledge-sharing between the voluntary sector, the corporate community and the
government.
The 2013 edition of the event will take place on
the 14th and 15th June 2013 at the Bombay Convention and Exhibition Centre,
Goregaon (E), Mumbai, India. This two-day event will have an exhibition and a
co-located conference.
In 2013 Giving Back-NGO India is back and it wants to leave a bigger
impact both in the voluntary sector as well as in the Indian corporate
community.
The theme of the expo and conference this year is “sustainability” and it attempts to enable NGOs receive support
and expertise from the Indian corporate to become “self sustainable”. Also, the event
will offer a platform for the Indian corporate to learn
and interact with CSR experts and industry heads on “how to leverage CSR
strategies for Brand Sustainability”.
The two days of the event will be packed with intense action, conferences, seminars, performances, workshops as well
as networking. Its main highlights are that the event is endorsed by its Brand Ambassador Kajal Aggarwal who has gained
increased fame in Bollywood since her brilliant performance in Ajay Devagan
starred Singham. The event will witness very well-known speakers such as Dr. Bhaskar Chaterjee and Dr. Kiran Bedi. The event will
also play host to bollywood star and socialist

Waman Prabhu. The event will also be graced with the presence of Shri R.R. Patil,
