5a. CSR is a growing need for companies
Based on a survey conducted by IBM in 2008 involving 1,130 CEOs in 40 countries that 42% of Asia Pacific Companies are increasing their CSR investment, 81% also believes that CSR is a key differentiating component of business strategy.
According to the Boston College survey, corporate citizenship leaders spend most of their time building relationships inside and outside of the company, about 85% of the time all told. As this is a relatively new development, the vast majority of them stated that they had backgrounds in other fields other than CSR or corporate citizenship: 93% to be exact. Nevertheless, almost 70% have taken steps to educate themselves in this field, with about 20% stating they completed a certification program.

5d. CSR conference:
Based from the number of delegates and participants, from competitor and own data, there is an increase in companies and individuals that have begun to advocate CSR as a business strategy.
Aside from this, there is a growing number of academic institutions that have also integrated CSR into their core curriculum, a good example is AGSB, with its Mulat Diwa. International academic institutions have also begun offering CSR course.
Finally, based from internet research on CSR, two to three years ago, there was a scarce number of written articles on CSR. Today, there is a plethora of literature on the said topic. It is difficult to provide a best estimate of the actual market size, but a good number is the Philippine Stock Exchange where majority of companies listed have their own CSR program being implemented and developed.
