DTGO Founder Recognized for Pursuit of a Vision for Better Society for All

Mrs. Thippaporn Ahriyavraromp, Group CEO of DTGO Corporation Limited, has been included on the 13th Annual Heroes of Philanthropy list, compiled by Forbes Asia to honour those prominent men and women who have shown significant dedication to solving some of the most pressing issues facing societies in the Asia-Pacific region in 2019.

Forbes Asia selects its honourees by “reviewing their monetary contributions, the depth of their involvement, and the reach of their philanthropic efforts”. Inclusion on this list recognizes the 3 decades Mrs. Ahriyavraromp has spent pursuing her vision of a better society for all through ‘business-social’ entrepreneurship.

Mrs. Ahriyavraromp established the DTGO group in 1993 and credits her father, Mr. Dhanin Chearavanont, Senior Chairman of the CP Group, inspiring her to seek ways to combine business success with societal contribution to create lasting impact.

“My father’s vision in philanthropy had led the group to set up ecosystems for long-term support rather than to simply do charity,” she said. “We have taken his guiding principles to heart, that all our undertakings, to which we devote our intellect, our strength, and our time, must benefit the people at large, the society we live in, our organization, and all other stakeholders.”

In keeping with these ideas, DTGO incorporates ambitious social and environmental goals into its core businesses, building a community of smart and good-hearted people who care for society at large, under the corporate motto ‘Adding Value in Everything We Do’. The group also dedicates 2% of its top-line revenue to initiatives in education, healthcare, and the environment.
