What is BCorp?
Here’s the definition provided by B Lab:
An analogy that is commonly used is that B Corp Certification is to business what Fair Trade certification is to coffee. In short, B Corps are companies that undergo a rigorous certification process to improve their social and environmental performance. They don’t just say that they’re good businesses or socially responsible businesses, as so many other businesses do, they actually use business as a force for good. Unlike traditional corporations that give priority only to financial profitability, B Corps look at the triple bottom line and use the power of business to address social and environmental problems.
B Corps work towards business being part of the solution, rather than part of the problem.
