A pressure for good: How B Corps are shaping the way forward for sustainable enterprise
October 7, 2021
As the B Corp movement continues to gain traction, this hour-long webinar will be heard from inspiring leaders and experts who have gone through the certification process and are actively making companies a positive force for workers, suppliers, communities and the environment.
The climate crisis is raging. Technologies keep evolving. The future of work lies ahead and new growth paradigms are emerging. NOW is the time to reinvent business models, change corporate cultures, change our understanding of values and reposition business as a force for positive change.
B Corp Certification is arguably the most effective way to make that change and build credibility, trust, and value for your business. More than 4,000 certified B-companies in 153 industries now meet the highest standards in terms of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose.
This one-hour edie webinar, hosted in collaboration with sustainability consultancy and edie’s B Corp partner, Seismic, brings together a selection of certified B Corps to discuss how the process worked, what role the internal sustainability and CSR teams have played, and benefits so far experienced.
During the session, edie will also share its own insights and updates as the brand’s publisher, Faversham House, is currently under way through the B Corp certification process.
