Because the future depends on it

B Corp (B Corporation) certification is awarded to companies that meet strict standards of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability. In recent years, more than 8,000 companies have joined the B Corp movement. Why are we seeing a steady increase in the number of companies opting to join the movement?
