The B Corp Movement: Community, Commitment and Certification

July 29, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 12:30 pm


Everyone
Virtual Event

Certified B Corporations are a new kind of business that balances purpose and profit. These businesses are legally required to consider the impact of their decisions on their workers, customers, suppliers, community, and the environment.

 

Join Kerrie McDevitt, HAYVN member and Consultant at Impact Growth Partners, to learn about this growing global B Corp community of over 4000 purpose-driven businesses (of all sizes), and how you can be a part of it!

 

If you are a start-up, you can even join the Pending B Corp movement. Let’s all commit to using our business as a force for good and make this world a better place for everyone!
