Join the B Corp Movement

Through the B Impact Assessment (BIA), the B Corp certification covers the impact of op - erations and business models on workers, communities, governance, the environment and customers. From diversity and stake- holder governance to environmental man- agement, supply chain management and employee benefits, the B Corp certification demonstrates how companies address their impact on all stakeholders over the long term by incorporating legal requirements into their bylaws.

Evolution of Standards
None of this is possible without the power of the B Corp community and our wider movement of business acting together as a force for good. In the new standards, B Lab is also prioritis- ing ‘interoperability’ with relevant regulations, such as EU directives and other certification schemes. From the end of 2025, the new stan- dards will incentivise the most impactful busi- ness actions and focus on what really matters, meaningfully demonstrating the leadership that the B Corps play in the world.
As the climate crisis intensifies and societal inequality grows, the need to bring about sys- temic change is clear. B Lab is rising to the challenge and is currently undertaking a multi- year project to evolve its standards. Transformation takes time. We are not simply revising our standards - this is an evolution and a necessary one. We must move away from economic principles that promote greed, wealth inequality, ecological collapse, and so- cial dysfunction.
