Becoming B Corp
Here's how we can help you.
We have been part of the B Corp movement for years, as well as being trained as B-leaders. As a result, the certification process holds few secrets for Elemental. With our team of B-leaders, we can help organisations with a sustainable ambition assess the feasibility of becoming a B Corp, formulate their sustainable ambition or even become a B Corp.
Wondering what a B Corp is? B Corp is a legal corporate structure designed to enable companies to demonstrate their positive social-ecological impact. As a 'force for good'. Companies with B Corp certification are officially committed to achieving social and environmental goals, in addition to making a profit. To achieve B Corp certification, companies must complete a comprehensive assessment known as the Business Impact Assessment (BIA) and answer questions about their sustainable operations and business model.
