The B Movement Builders program is designed for companies who are genuinely committed to the principles of the B Movement.
Before joining B Movement Builders, companies must undergo a Risk Review to determine if they are involved in activities that are against the values of the B Movement, in which case they are ineligible.
The B Movement Builders program is not the same as B Corp Certification. Therefore, companies participating in B Movement Builders will not necessarily meet the same social and environmental performance standards as Certified B Corporations. However, as part of their participation and ongoing eligibility in the program, B Movement Builders need to make meaningful progress on key goals related to their social and environmental performance as overseen by B Lab’s independent Standards Advisory Council.
