# Societal Business Campaigns 'BITC' Champions Community Action by Responsible Corporations By Social Business Editor | Published 2014-05-31 | Social Good Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bitc References: [twitter](https://twitter.com/BITC1) & [bitc.org.uk](http://www.bitc.org.uk/) Business in the Community (BITC) is an initiative that has been around more than 30 years. That is to say, it has predated much of the current social business and social enterprise talk, although, that doesn't mean it doesn't engage. Its name is exactly what it does; BITC aims to get businesses and corporations involved in the community to be more socially responsible and sustainable. BITC also offers a number of different service including a responsible business index, training, awards, partnerships and advisory services. They are currently behind Start UK's nation-wide sustainable food campaign, an endeavor that will certainly push the recognition not only of the events they run but also the very core of what they do. **Contact Information** Business in the Community [website](http://www.bitc.org.uk/) BITC on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/BITC1) ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.0/10 - Popularity: 10% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Social Good](https://www.trendhunter.com/socialgood) > [Social Business](https://www.trendhunter.com/socialbusiness) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Community Involvement:** Promoting and empowering businesses to engage in the community for social responsibility and sustainability. - **Responsible Business Index:** Measuring and recognizing businesses that prioritize social responsibility and sustainability. - **Sustainable Campaigns:** Creating and supporting nationwide campaigns that promote sustainable practices and products. ### Who This Affects Most - **Corporate Social Responsibility:** Implementing and expanding programs and initiatives that prioritize social responsibility in the corporate world. - **Sustainability Consulting:** Advising and guiding businesses towards sustainable, environmentally friendly practices. - **Event Planning and Management:** Partnering with businesses and organizations to plan and execute sustainable events. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [CSR Baking Initiatives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baking-a-better-tomorrow.md) - [Community-Supporting Business Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/linked-prosperity.md) - [Business-Focused Environmental Responsibility Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wildsight.md) - [Collaborative Nonprofit Group Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/little-labels-big-impact-campaign.md) - [Branded Social Impact Initiatives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/community-to-the-people.md) - [Social Justice Desert Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/make-some-motherchunkin-change.md) - [Social-First Local Shopping Schemes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shop-local-by-tiktok-shop.md) - [Social Responsibility-Aligned Corporate Marketing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goodbrand-impact.md) - [Sustainable Brand Certificates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/certified-b-corporation.md)
