The Qi Network

About Qi Global

Qi is a global network of innovators creating human progress in harmony with nature.

We provide members a platform for cross-industry networking and collaboration. Innovation happens with the cross-pollination of knowledge from a range of industries. Based on this principle, Qi works to bring together corporate, community and creative sectors to generate new ideas for sustainable development in the following areas: Architecture & Urban Planning; Conservation & Wildlife; Energy & Technology; Fashion, Art & Design; Food, Health & Leisure; Leadership & Innovation; Impact Investment; Policy & Nation Development; Women’s Empowerment; and Youth Ambition & Education.

Every October, Qi hosts an annual meeting in Singapore, gathering business and community leaders from around the world. Contributors demonstrate how social innovation can impact and change lives and communities in Asia. Qi Global Pte. Ltd. is a Singapore-based social enterprise founded in 2009 whose vision is to create human progress in harmony with nature.

A 5★ Social Enterprise

Qi Global Pte Ltd. is a Singapore-based social enterprise founded in 2009.

Most people think of a social enterprise as a hybrid between a commercial business and a charity. To us at Qi, it's simply the new way to start a business.

In fact, we have developed our own 5-star model for social enterprises:

  • We have a defined social mission: Human Progress in Harmony with Nature
  • We are business-focused and free of political and religious motives.
  • We operate on a triple bottom-line (3BL), incorporating Financial, Social and Environmental principles.
  • We pay our employees fair compensation.
  • We reward our shareholders with a responsible return on their investment

Qi Idea Lab

Qi employees give 20% of their time to pursuing their own passions.

As a result, Qi has grown several in-house Social Impact Projects. These budding business ideas are helped along by our vast network of resources open for collaboration, and are eventually launched to transform individuals, communities, and nations over time.
