Social Responsibility Initiatives
At General Software
GS's mission statement is "to create value through technology" and it aims to deliver superior customer experience while focusing on innovation, quality of products/services and continuous learning.
In keeping with this mission statement, Company's CSR initiatives are focused on three areas – "people", "planet" and "profits".
Through these initiatives, GS is committed to improving the quality of life for all stakeholders. The economic growth that comes from this commitment translates into value creation for our shareholders.
Our current initiatives include: the annual pro-bono program, the annual investment readiness program, the annual fundraising program and last but definitely not least our Advisory Board program.
The annual pro-bono program:
General Software's annual pro-bono program facilitates matching select organizations with ambitious executives whom are in mid to senior level positions. The organizations benefit from a vibrant pool of potential interns whom are there to help solve problems and the executives gain insight and into how organizations from other industries operate.
The annual investment readiness program:
This initiative helps ambitious entrepreneurs who have limited access to experienced business professionals that can provide insight, mentoring and coaching in developing their idea into a viable business opportunity. The program members will have an opportunity to network with potential investors, learn about the funding process, understand what venture capitalists look for in a business plan and share their own stories with others in the community.

Essentially, this is our way of giving back by sharing our knowledge and experience which will help these companies develop, grow and scale into the future.
