Corporate social responsibility: from strategy to action
Our ESG policy
As of 2016, SIGMA Partners has implemented an ESG policy and joined the UN Global Compact. We want to combine positive social impact and growth by aligning the firm's strategy with a mission that gives meaning to its very existence.
This is not just about having a positive impact on the world through good deeds or philanthropy, but about working through our expertise and skills. Corporate responsibility in all its dimensions - economic, social, societal and environmental - is an integral part of who we are, what we do and why we do it.
This is the backdrop of the new corporate responsibility as we conceive it, and within this framework our firm conducts its development with respect for fundamental human and social rights and respect for the environment wherever it operates.
Our solidarity actions
We encourage our employees to invest in solidarity projects and actions. These can take a variety of forms, ranging from one-off actions (collections, donations of luncheon vouchers, etc.) to long-term volunteer missions.
SIGMA PARTNERS alongside associations
The firm is notably a partner of 3 associations with which we work on a daily basis
Imagine for Margo
Imagine for Margo is an association that carries out various actions to finance research against childhood cancer.
SIGMA Partners is a sponsor of the annual Children Without Cancer race held in the Parc de Saint Cloud and participates in concerts organized for the benefit of the association.
Why this cause?
Because 2,500 children and teenagers are diagnosed with cancer every year in France.
Because cancer is the leading cause of death by disease in children in France and Europe.
Because there are 60 types of cancer in children and research needs dedicated funds to find ways to cure these little patients because pediatric cancers are considered rare diseases by industry and very few cancer-specific drugs are developed.
