Dear Madam / Sir,

The Joint Audit Cooperation (JAC) on behalf of its 16 member companies: AT&T, Deutsche Telekom, KPN, MTS, Orange, Proximus, Rogers, Swisscom, Telefónica, Telenor, Telia Company, TELSTRA, TIM, VEON, Verizon and Vodafone, is pleased to invite you to the JAC Forum, which will take place on 2 days - 31st January / 1st February 2018, Guangzhou, China.

In the spirit of cooperation beyond competition and with your valued support, JAC has been making continuous efforts and progress towards improving the sustainability of its members and its suppliers.

Last year, at the JAC CSR Forum in Xi’an, we focused on real cases of best practice addressing CSR issues and we learnt about new approaches beyond compliance.

At this upcoming Forum, we will collectively aim to address the next CSR challenges we face for the ICT (Information Communication Technology) supply chain and we will aim to explore jointly, the opportunities to integrate the scope of the JAC activities, through training, seminars, and dialogue with stakeholders.

We are excited to announce that for the first time in JAC’s history we will recognise suppliers across different tiers that have participated in the JAC audit campaign and have been transparent, allowing JAC verification and closing out any actions, finding or improvements during the event.

The event will bring together key international stakeholders such as leading telecom operators, suppliers in the Information Communication Technology sector (ICT), CSR institutions, Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) and researchers.

Please forward the invitation within your organizations to the respective Corporate Social Responsibility and/or Procurement functions to encourage their attendance. Please confirm your attendance by registering below before 15th January 2018 to secure your place.

Yours Sincerely
Dr. Alex Wang (on behalf of the JAC member Companies)
