Does your business have a purpose beyond profit? If not, should it?

How can B Corp status help you remain committed to your mission while navigating change and business growth?

A rapidly changing business landscape has led many Fortune 500 executives and investors to see the value of a 'triple bottom line,' addressing people, planet, and profit. But focusing on shareholder value, while adding on philanthropic or corporate social responsibility programs, is not enough. Businesses need to create shared value for all stakeholders.

The long-term sustainability of any business can be seen through its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) impact. In this webinar, we'll discuss what's driving this change and how small and medium-sized companies can leverage a B Corporation status to drive mission, increase profit, and attract investors.

Certified B Corporations are a new kind of business that balances purpose and profit. They are legally required to consider the impact of their decisions on their workers, customers, suppliers, community, and the environment. This is a community of leaders, driving a global movement of people using business as a force for good.

This event will be hosted by Kyra Kaszynski, Inclusive Growth Lead for Global Public Policy at Deloitte, and Walnut Club member, alongside special guest, Grace Manning, Head of Impact at Saxbys.

This event is open to all. Tickets are $5 for non-member guests. There is no fee for Walnut Club members.
