Eagle Freedom Alliance, an investor-led coalition advancing corporate accountability through the public markets, has released a shareholder letter recognizing Apple Inc. for “its leadership in advancing responsible mineral sourcing and greater supply chain transparency in East Africa.” The letter also recognizes Apple’s leadership within the Responsible Minerals Initiative and its broader commitment to responsible sourcing. “Responsible supply chains do not become industry standards simply because a better model exists,” said Wes Lyons, founder of Eagle Freedom Alliance and general partner at Eagle Venture Fund. That is precisely the kind of measurable corporate leadership Eagle Freedom Alliance exists to elevate.” I hope you’ll help support Apple World Today by becoming a patron.
