KSB receives VIA Bona Award for Corporate Philanthropy

For this year’s VIA Bona Awards given out by the VIA Foundation, law firm Kocián Šolc Balaštík (KSB) received the Award For Long-Term Partnership for its long-term support of the Good Will Committee – Olga Havlová’s Foundation (GWC) through Advent charity concerts.

KSB has cooperated with GWC since 1995 through organizing an Advent Good Will Charity Concert to which employees and business partners of KSB purchasing tickets and/or giving donations to GWC are invited. The raised funds are used to support GWC’s “New Family” and “Senior” projects in accordance with the donor’s or sponsor’s decision.

The evaluating committee composed of representatives of commercial companies, media and non-profit sector appreciates the fact that KSB, besides the long-term and regular support, exerts its best efforts to involve further donors, recruiting from KSB’s clients and friends in cooperation with GWC.

Suburbanization Trends and Sustainable Commuting: Will the Construction Act Amendment Change the Landscape?

The discussion surrounding the current proposal to amend the Construction Act (Parliamentary Print 67) has moved to the committee stage in the Chamber of Deputies following its first reading. The primary declared objective is the acceleration of construction, particularly regarding residential buildings. The shortage of affordable housing remains a pressing issue in major cities, both in the Czech Republic and abroad, giving rise to the pervasive trend of suburbanization. This raises the question: does the proposed amendment truly have the ambition to reverse this trend, and will an increase in housing construction alone suffice?
