Making an impact through UNLEASH 2018
Accelerating innovative, scalable solutions to support our WorldClass ambition
Deloitte’s organization-wide WorldClass initiative seeks to empower 50 million people to succeed in the rapidly changing global economy. In order to reach this goal we are collaborating with others to find the most innovative solutions to the complex global challenges including education, skills development, and access to opportunity.
Deloitte is collaborating with UNLEASH for the second year, to bring together the brightest young minds from different sectors and backgrounds to determine and develop new solutions for the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). UNLEASH is a global non-profit organization that aspires to become the world's leading platform for scalable solutions to the SDGs.
Applying business skills to accelerate solutions
As lead innovation partner for UNLEASH, Deloitte facilitates innovation labs where Deloitte professionals apply their business capabilities and innovation experience to guide talented young people and social entrepreneurs towards tangible solutions. During the inaugural UNLEASH Lab 2017 in Denmark, 45 passionate Deloitte professionals facilitated labs for 1,000 social entrepreneurs.

UNLEASH 2018
In June 2018, we will support UNLEASH to deliver its second event in Singapore. During the event, Deloitte will be particularly focused on accelerating solutions that support our WorldClass ambition to positively impact 50 million people.
Participation in the UNLEASH Lab provides a unique opportunity for Deloitte practitioners from around the world. They use their skills in new ways to make an impact that matters, and they are empowered to become the next generation of leaders working to solve complex global issues.
