Бизнес-лидеры России получили награды ECO BEST-2025

Last Thursday, the PSB "Patriot Cosmos Hotels" hosted the annual ECO BEST-2025 award ceremony. The event brought together leading companies in the country, proving that environmental responsibility has become not a trend, but an integral part of a successful business strategy.

As noted by the organizers, the key challenges of our time that business is addressing remain the fight against climate change, reducing the carbon footprint, implementing the principles of a circular economy, and preserving biodiversity. However, this year, experts unanimously noted a qualitative shift in the approaches of corporations.

“We see a qualitative shift in the approach of business to environmental issues,” commented Alena Pylnova, Executive Director of the award, on the results of the award. “Today, companies are demonstrating not individual initiatives, but comprehensive strategies integrated into the core of the business. The projects of this year's laureates are no longer just an attempt to reduce our environmental footprint, but a story about creating a positive impact on the planet and society. This level of responsibility sets a high bar for the entire business environment.”

The jury of the award, which included recognized experts in the field of sustainable development and ecology, noted a significant increase not only in the level of project submissions, but also in their real, measurable contribution to environmental protection. Each victory was the result of careful evaluation and confirmed achievements.

Public recognition and the main awards of the evening were received by companies whose initiatives proved their effectiveness in practice. The list of ECO BEST-2025 laureates includes:

• State Corporation Rosatom (as a driver of low-carbon energy)
• Natura Siberica Group (for its contribution to the conservation of biodiversity and the use of natural ingredients)

For several years in a row, the ECO BEST AWARD has been fulfilling an important mission that goes beyond simple awarding. It creates an environment for open dialogue and the exchange of best practices between leaders from different sectors of the economy. Thus, the award continues not only to identify and encourage the best environmental initiatives, but also to contribute to the formation of a cohesive and responsible business community in Russia.
