As we kick off our support for Pride Month this June, we’re excited to share our inclusion in the Open For Business coalition of global companies committed to advancing LGBTQ+ rights globally.

By joining the coalition we’ll help enable Open For Business research into building economic prosperity through more inclusive and diverse societies, as well as the economic and business case for better global LGBT+ inclusion.

Other coalition members include: ABB, Accenture, American Express, AT&T, BD, Boston Consulting Group, Brunswick Group, C&A, Deloitte, Deutsche Bank, DLA Piper, Dow, EY, Google, GSK, HSBC, IBM, IKEA, Inditex, JP Morgan Chase, KPMG, LEGO, LinkedIn, Linklaters, L'Oreal, MasterCard, McKinsey, Meta, Microsoft, Pinsent Masons, PwC, RELX Group, Sidley Austin, Standard Chartered, Unilever, Virgin Group and Wabtec Corp. 

We’re excited to be part of this important coalition and join other businesses in promoting LGBTQ+ inclusive societies.
