The SIERA Awards recognize bold leadership and measurable global impact in sustainability, ESG excellence, and innovation.
Rooted in the legacy of the EUTECH SDG Awards, we celebrate changemakers whose work redefines what’s possible — across regions, sectors, and communities.
Launched in 2020 as the EUTECH SDG Awards, our mission was clear: recognize those driving meaningful progress toward the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Over three successful editions, we celebrated hundreds of changemakers — innovators, activists, entrepreneurs — who dared to think bigger and act bolder.
The SIERA Awards build upon this proud legacy, expanding our platform to embrace the emerging priorities shaping our future:
Driven by the vision of a world built on equity, impact, and innovation, the SIERA Awards are not just an event — it is a movement for inspiring the world for a better tomorrow.
What started in 2020 as a focused initiative to spotlight SDG-driven changemakers has grown into a powerful global movement. Through each edition, we’ve expanded our reach, elevated new voices, and deepened our commitment to recognizing those shaping a better tomorrow. The launch of the SIERA Awards marks not just a name change — but a bold new era of global recognition across sustainability, ESG excellence, and inclusive innovation.
