8/7/25, 10:03 AM 300 Companies Complete The Impact Declaration Through The Sustainable Impact Digital Portal
Commenting on this development, Sarah Shaw, CEO of Majra, noted that the increasing engagement with the Impact
Declaration and applications for the Impact Seal reflect a growing institutional commitment within the private sector toward
transparency and measurable action. She stated,“At Majra, we are building a nationwide institutional environment grounded
in documentation, impact measurement, and results-driven partnerships. Through the Sustainable Impact Digital Portal, we
empower companies to transform their commitments into measurable contributions that serve society and advance the
UAE's vision for sustainable corporate responsibility.”
In parallel with this growing participation, Majra received approximately 160 applications for the second cycle of the Impact
Seal through the digital portal. The applications included around 100 from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)
and 60 from large corporates-demonstrating increased interest from all economic sectors in formalizing their impact and
enhancing institutional competitiveness.
The Impact Seal is awarded across two official categories: one for large companies and a newly introduced category
dedicated to SMEs, aligned with the UAE's National SME Agenda. The Seal is granted in three tiers-Platinum, Gold, and
Silver-based on the scope and depth of corporate impact and sustainability practices.
Launched in late 2024, the Sustainable Impact Digital Portal serves as an integrated national platform enabling companies
to submit declarations and applications in a streamlined and unified manner. The portal also provides access to a suite of
services offered by Majra, including the documentation and accreditation of CSR and sustainability projects, certified
workshops, specialized studies, and capacity-building programs tailored to institutional needs. It ensures alignment with
national priorities and global sustainability standards.
Obtaining the Impact Seal offers companies a comprehensive range of strategic and regulatory benefits. It represents
official federal-level recognition for excellence in ESG, CSR, and sustainability, elevating corporate credibility and public
image at both local and international levels. The Seal reinforces stakeholder and investor trust through a certified
endorsement from a UAE government entity and grants companies' priority access to government-led initiatives, policy
development circles, and high-level partnership opportunities. It also supports institutional branding through authorized
promotional use of the Seal emblem and strengthens internal performance by enabling companies to review and improve
their sustainability indicators and systems. All achievements are recorded and made visible through the portal, contributing
to a transparent national repository of impact and facilitating integration into the wider sustainability ecosystem in the UAE.
This upward trend in corporate participation confirms the success of the federal impact measurement framework in fostering
a culture of responsible business, enabling verified tracking of private sector contributions, and directing them toward
national priorities in line with global ESG and sustainability benchmarks.
