What is a B Corp?
The business term refers to a for-profit corporation focused on ethical business practices and social sustainability. According to the certifying entity B Lab, businesses that receive B Corp certifications must abide by “standards, policies, tools, and programs that shift the behavior, culture, and structural underpinnings of capitalism.”
This hour, we discuss what B Corps are, how they work, and how our guests think ethical practices can or should transform the business landscape.
