B Lab is a non-profit transforming the global economy to benefit all people, communities, and the planet
Just like we expect Certified B Corporations to improve continually, B Lab Europe is constantly exploring how we need to evolve and adapt based on valuable stakeholder feedback, the rapidly changing business and political landscape, and the urgency of the social and environmental crises we are experiencing.
B Lab is transforming the global economy to benefit all people and the planet. Across Europe and the globe, B Lab’s international network creates standards, policies, tools, and programs for business to shift the behavior, culture, and structure of capitalism. We certify companies—known as B Corps—who are leading the way in addressing society’s most critical challenges.
People want to work for, buy from, and invest in businesses they believe in. Certified B Corporations, or B Corps, are companies verified by B Lab to meet high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. Use our map to explore the growing community of companies using business as a force for good.
Together, we are shifting our economic system from profiting only the few to benefiting all, from concentrating wealth and power to ensuring equity, from extraction to regeneration, and from prioritizing individualism to embracing interdependence.
As our community grows, so does the urgency to collaborate with other across industries and borders to achieve our vision. By mobilizing businesses and working with other movements, coalitions, policymakers, activists, and organizations, we can change our economic system to positively impact all stakeholders — workers, communities, customers, and our planet.
The global strategies to achieve our vision.
Unlocking new forms of collaboration.
Advocating for all business to consider its impact on people and the planet
