Lead a movement
B Corps set the gold standard for good business and inspire a race to the top, creating performance standards and legal structures being used by thousands of other businesses around the world.
Together, we are shifting our economic system from profiting only a few to benefiting all, from concentrating wealth and power to ensuring equity, from extraction to regeneration, and from prioritizing individualism to embracing interdependence.
For businesses, becoming a B Corp means attracting more employees, improving their company and finding power as a community.

When your company certifies as a B Corporation, you join a community of business leaders who share your belief that business can solve social and environmental problems. Connect online, meet in person at events, or build client and vendor relationships within a powerful community of practice.
More and more of the workforce makes decisions about where to work based on the positive impact their work creates and how well an employer treats their team. There’s no better way to attract and engage mission-aligned talent than to verify your values with B Corp Certification.
Maintaining B Corp Certification through the B Impact Assessment is a powerful mechanism to help your company set goals for improvement, create more positive social and environmental impact, and track performance over time.
The third-party validation that comes with B Corp Certification helps your company stand out and stand by your mission. The B Corp seal on a product, website, sales materials or business card instantly communicates that a company is a verified leader when it comes to positive impact and empowers individuals to confidently vote with their dollars.
Make sure your company is built on a solid legal foundation for the long term. The B Corp legal framework helps you protect your mission through capital raises and leadership changes and gives you more flexibility when evaluating potential sale and liquidity options.
In 2023 our global community reached the milestone of 8,000 B Corps across 95 countries employing over 740,000 workers in 161 industries. In Europe (including UK), we have over 3500 companies certified across the region.
Overall the B Corp journey helped us tremendously to get going: we measured everything, made material choices, changed governance, adapted policies, set ambitious sustainability targets — in every part of our business. The process of certification was rigorous and made us fine-tune and dig deeper over and over again.
The B Corp certification for us is a solid form of credibility for our non-profit partners and employees. It is the validation and expression of our impact mission and the sense of belonging to a like-minded community.
In the B Corp Community there is enormous potential to find synergies, share knowledge, good practices and much more. The feeling of collaboration is enormous.
Becoming a B Corp took us to reflect on all aspects of our business and identify improvement priorities to always maximize our positive impact. We've moved from a declarative position to building evidence - a much more demanding process than a set of intentions. It was the principle of ‘walk the talk’.
The B Corp Certification for us is an external validation that we walk the talk. But most importantly, the B Impact Assessment (BIA) provides us with useful impact management tools and a roadmap for continuous improvement.
The fact of being B Corp, as a company and as people who work in a B Corp, has fostered our pride in belonging and has allowed us to attract talent to the company.
We have the ambition to increase our B Corp score year on year. We believe we can do a lot by ourselves, but we know we will be more successful with partners who have the same purpose like B Corps.
B Corp is a powerful way to demonstrate that we care about the effect we have on the wider world. We fight food waste and have sustainability at our core. We are also growing fast and B Corp is a useful framework for ensuring that we retain this sustainability.
The process to become a B Corp helped us understand our performance with the environment, customers, suppliers, employees and governance and allowed us to identity and implement improvements and future strategies to exceed the high standards required by B Lab
At Baabuk we feel honored to be part of the B Corp movement. The community is a true guide and companion on the path to always improve on our People, Planet and Product efforts.
Sustainability is deeply embedded in our DNA and our investment offering. Being a B Corp emphasizes the message that the financial industry can be a powerful catalyst towards economic sustainability.
Actions speak louder than words in terms of credibility, especially in our sector. We founded Globalance to drive a paradigm shift in asset management. With the B Corp certification, we let independent third parties speak for us.
Our global vision is of an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economic system for all people and the planet. We are mobilizing the B Corp movement to change our economic system to positively impact all stakeholders — workers, communities, customers, and our planet. We won’t stop until all business is a force for good.
In order to achieve the B Corp certification, a company first needs to complete the B Impact Assessment, which measures the positive impact of the company in areas of governance, workers, community, the environment.
