Description

Are you interested in learning about the B Corp certification and why so many companies are joining the B Corp movement to be part of something bigger than themselves? Join us at our #Bthechange event on September 1st.


B Corporations are a new kind of company seeking a better way to do business. It’s like a LEED or Fair Trade certification, but for a business, not just a building or a bag of coffee. There are currently over 1300 certified B Corporations around the world and on Tuesday, September 1st, we are bringing together some of the leaders in the B Corporation community for an evening of discussion, networking and inspiration here at Hootsuite HQ.
