Our Communities

Responsible Business is the only business in the Balkans

Strong communities help businesses grow in the right way. At Westcon-Comstor, we see community impact as a core part of Responsible Business, not a side activity.

That matters across the Balkans. Communities help open doors to skills, careers, innovation, and local growth. When communities do well, people, businesses, and regional economies all benefit.

Our work with our communities focuses on mutual success. We support social wellbeing, help create opportunities, and bring people together across our partner ecosystem. We do this through philanthropy, volunteering, skills support, and business networking that creates practical value.

Our focus areas

Creating opportunities and inspiring the next generation

We want to help people reach their potential. That starts with access to learning, skills, confidence, and career opportunity.

Across the Balkans, many young people are looking for better access to technology careers and future-ready skills. Employers also need a stronger pipeline of talent. We help support this by promoting access and encouraging development.

Supporting communities in need

We support communities through philanthropy, charity activity, and volunteering. These efforts help provide practical support where it is needed most.

We know one-off support has limits. That is why we focus on activities that can contribute to lasting change. Fundraising, local charity days, and community partnerships all play a part when they connect to real needs.

Fostering communities in our partner ecosystem

We bring people together across our partner ecosystem to share ideas, build relationships, and support mutual growth.

This includes events, programmes, and forums to help people learn from one another and create new connections. In a region like South-Eastern Europe, where cross-border collaboration can create real value, these networks matter.

How we support our communities

Global partnerships and community initiatives

We work through partnerships and initiatives to create pathways for young people and disadvantaged groups.

Philanthropy and charity days

Our philanthropic work and charity days help raise funds for communities in need. These activities also bring teams together around shared purpose.

Community Service Day

Our teams get a Community Service Day dedicated to volunteering and charity activity. This gives employees time to support causes in a hands-on way.

Connecting business communities

We connect business communities through programmes and events that encourage collaboration and innovation, including initiatives such as Tech Xpert.
