Kilpailun tavoitteena on edistää suomalaisyritysten vastuullisuusraportoinnin informatiivisuutta ja hyödyllisyyttä sidosryhmille sekä palkita vastuullisuusraportointiin panostaneita. Lisäksi kilpailulla pyritään antamaan muille, myös pienemmille yrityksille, kannustusta ja esimerkkejä hyvistä käytännöistä. Kilpailussa menestyminen luo yrityksille positiivista mainearvoa, ja ennen kaikkea kilpailu pyrkii kannustamaan yrityksiä kehittämään vastuullisuustoimiaan ylipäätään. Kilpailu on avoin ja maksuton kaikille organisaatioille. Kilpailussa arvioinnin kohteena on organisaation vastuullisuusraportointi, joka heijastaa sekä edellisen vuoden tapahtumia ja saavutuksia että tulevaisuuden suuntaviivoja ja tavoitteita. Kilpailussa ei kuitenkaan arvioida yrityksen suoriutumista esimerkiksi taloudellisten, sosiaalisten tai ympäristövastuun näkökulmasta. Kilpailun järjestää eri yhteiskunnallisia toimijoita edustava järjestäjäryhmä, joka määrittelee vuosittain kilpailun tavoitteet ja arviointikriteerit. Vuoden 2019 kilpailun järjestäjäryhmä koostui kymmenen organisaation edustajista: • Aalto-yliopiston
