Our active membership is composed of organisations and individuals from private and public businesses (from the small owner managed business to multi-national companies), investors, and private consultancies, some NGOs and relevant government departments. All our members share with us a view that business has an extraordinary capacity to create practical solutions to complex problems; and that this capacity needs to be increasingly harnessed to tackle the big issues we face as a global community.

 

Tomorrow’s Company was established in 1992 following an agenda-setting inquiry undertaken by the UK’s RSA in the early 1990s, led by Sir Anthony Cleaver which set out to answer Charles Handy’s question ‘what is a company for?’ Based in the UK, Tomorrow’s Company increasingly has an international reach with a programme of activity and contacts around the world. For over ten years Tomorrow’s Company has provided a safe space within which business leaders can talk, listen, reflect and learn. We have created this space by working in and with our member companies; through a stimulating programme of events, large and small, which draw from our wide agenda; and by active networking. Much of our work takes place in private, at informal dialogues where our network comes together under Chatham House rules.

Examples of our current partner and member organisations include: John Lewis, BSkyB, KPMG, Marks & Spencer, Electrolux, British Airways, Wragge & Co, DBERR, BT and Infosys.

 

‘Over the years Tomorrow’s Company has done some really ground breaking work with various companies on the role of companies in society. I was involved in the Tomorrow’s Global Company inquiry and it was a pleasure to work with people who have a good understanding of what drives responsible business - Stimulating to work with them.’

Mark Moody-Stuart, Chairman, Anglo American plc
