Hello, Could the title be changed to Institute of Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability (ICRS) - adding the ICRS in brakets after? Thanks

No, see WP:ACRONYMTITLE, An addition to ICRS should suffice. Nthep (talk) 14:26, 21 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Notability[edit]

This organisation is only just over a month old and the sources are either internal or based on the press releases surrounding the launch. Additional citations confirming notability of the organisation are needed. Nthep (talk)

Comment -They are notable when you consider that to become an Institute in the UK, they had to obtain permission from the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills of the UK Government. Also, to be launched at The City of London Guildhall with speeches by Lord Mayor of London, Fiona Woolf; the Minister for Civil Society, Hon. Nick Hurd MP; and the Chief Executive of Business in the Community (all now cited with external sources in the article) suggests that they are highly notable. Finally, consider that whilst there is the suggestion that they 'started less than 3 months ago' the Institute was created by Corporate Responsibility Group which was established in 1987 (when few people knew what Corporate Responsibility meant).
