Beyond the certification: Is B Corp the only way to do good?

Join Bath’s changemakers for a lively debate on B Corps, impact, and better ways to do good in business. Be part of the conversation.
The B Corp movement has taken the world by storm. As a global symbol of high social and environmental performance, it feels like it’s become the “gold standard” for businesses that want to be a force for good. But is a single certification the only path to do better business?
Join Bath Unlimited this March for a frank, unfiltered discussion on the future of purpose-driven business. We’re bringing together a panel of local leaders to debate whether the B Corp framework is the ultimate destination or just one of many routes to impact.
We’ll be joined by two proud Bath B Corps and two non-certified businesses who are delivering radical social and environmental change through alternative models. We’re also delighted that Andy Crane from the University of Bath will be opening the event with an introduction. These are our speakers on the panel:

Rachel Eason-Whale, Head of Impact & Inclusion at L&C.
We’re proud to be partnering with Avon Needs Trees to support their Future Forest Fund, helping to restore woodland across the region. As part of this event, we’ll be contributing directly to long-term reforestation efforts and you’ll be part of that impact simply by attending.
