One Page Summary

In our daily work with sustainable companies we figured out, that it is very difficult for green and social companies, to find partners and suppliers who operate in a similar way regarding a high sustainability standard.

The research and evaluation is time-consuming and often without any result.
On the one hand, sustainable companies are still the minority and thus single lone warriors.
On the other hand, companies, who are performing in a sustainable way, are not talking about their innovative ideas, so that others could benefit.

Our solution is an online market place, where sustainable companies can meet, present their products and services as well as their innovative good practices to motivate others. Additionally, they can look for cooperation partners and suppliers with a similar mind-set and search for employees.

Our goals are to increase the number of cooperation between sustainable companies, as well as an easier access to green and fair procurement. As a result, companies will change their procurement behavior and buy more and more from sustainable companies. Good practices and success stories are motivating traditional companies to engage in sustainability. The improvement of social and ecological sustainability will lead to a stronger economic sustainability.

The Tomorrow marketplace offers unique advantages. First of all, we are cooperating with trustworthy, sustainable companies. I.E. The key criteria for being a partner on the TOMORROW marketplace are strict and reliable sustainability indicators.
Secondly, we are initiating a high interaction between sustainable companies by creating a network of sustainable companies, by active promotion of cooperation between sustainable companies and by enhancing green and sustainable procurement.

We are Forum Tomorrow, a non-profit association based in Vienna, run by Angela Drosg-Plöckinger and Sigrid Koloo. Our purpose is to increase humanity, social justice, ecological sustainability, transparency and participation among companies by offering good practices, networking, cooperation, training, consulting. That’s what drives us. Together we are thinking of tomorrow.
