MYNET'S GOAL
Create value
What does it mean to create value for the community? Which activities does MyNet engage in as a Benefit Corporation?

The aim is to help people and associations who daily devote themselves and their time, energy and generosity to others, by providing them with a user-friendly platform. MyNet is a multi-functional and all-in-one solution that can enhance their organisation and improve internal communication.
MyNet software can become their main tool to safely and quickly share information, organise and file documents, send texts and multimedia content, convey surveys and simplify access to external platforms and software through a list of useful direct links.

Responsibility and transparency
MyNet pursues objectives of common benefit in a responsible, sustainable, and transparent way, balancing the interests of the business partners with those of the community.
MyNet responsibly considers its social and environmental impact and acts to generate shared positive value.
The annual compilation of the impact report proves MyNet’s transparency and specifies undertaken actions, attained results, progress made and future commitments.
The use of the platform itself, which encourages participation in charitable projects and the decrease of paper consumption and Co2 emissions, promotes new sustainable and responsible habits in the workplace.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
What are Benefit Corporations
Benefit Corporations are the output of a new business legal form introduced in Italy in 2016. While pursuing profit-making, these companies have voluntarily decided to pursue one or more purposes of common benefit.
Fortunately, more and more companies are choosing to become Benefit Corporation, joining a movement of companies that believes in a necessary change inspired by equality and sustainability. These companies are aware that it is nowadays essential to introduce into the world more wealth than the amount we consume.
