As a result of it's history, the PSI (Promotional Product Service Industry) is both a company and a network.

In 1960, the founder of PSI - Walter Jung - had the idea of creating an effective promotional product sectorout of the patchwork of companies which existed at the time. Being a member of PSI would boost the business prospects of all those participating. Right from the outset nearly 50 years ago, the PSI has been run on a "Members only" basis.

Today, fairs and services located in Dusseldorf, Paris and even Madrid, link more than 6500 promotional product companies throughout Europe and the world. source: PSI Website

The Ethical Junction Network came in to existence back in 1999. At that time the website was intended to serve as portal for many different ethical issues from consumers looking for organic compost to ethical businesses looking for finance.

Its constitution as a not-for-profit Community Interest Company, ensures 100% of any profit that is generated by Ethical Junction will be donated annually to causes that promote sustainable living. For the first few years at least, all surpluses will be donated to Action for Sustainable Living which is written into the Community Interest Asset Lock as beneficiary of any assets. source: Ethical Junction Website
