adopt corporate social responsibility (CSR) and environmental, social, and governance (ESG)
practices.

Sarah Shaw, Director of MAJRA, highlighted the significance of the initiative, stating:

“The Majra SME for Impact Seal category is more than just recognition; it
reflects our unwavering commitment to fostering responsible business

practices within the SME sector. We aim to create a culture where businesses
integrate sustainability into their operations while actively contributing to the
UAE’s vision for a future-ready economy.”

Impact Seal: A Benchmark For Excellence In CSR & ESG

Since its launch in 2023, the Impact Seal has become the UAE’s highest CSR and ESG
recognition, with three certification levels—Silver, Gold, and Platinum—honoring companies that

demonstrate exceptional contributions to sustainability. The new SME-focused category will
encourage more businesses to report impact-driven data, fostering transparency and accountability
in sustainable initiatives.

During the Sharjah Entrepreneurship Festival, MAJRA also:

Sponsored three complimentary SME pods for businesses awarded the Impact Seal, enabling
them to present their verified sustainable impact projects.
Demonstrated its qualification and verification process for sustainable projects, reinforcing its role
as the only federal body responsible for certifying impact-driven initiatives through its Impact
Verification and Impact Qualification Stamps.
With this initiative, MAJRA continues to champion the integration of entrepreneurship, innovation,
and sustainability, ensuring SMEs play a vital role in achieving the UAE’s long-term economic and
environmental goals.
