How B Corps collaborate

As the B Corp movement grows, so do opportunities for collective action. Learn how individuals, businesses, and industries in the B Corp community collaborate to innovate, share resources, and drive systemic economic change.

Collective action among B Corps is essential in driving systemic change.

B Corps join forces to tackle societal and environmental challenges, recognizing that interdependence is key to driving systemic change. Our movement is built on collective action—by working together rather than competing, businesses can amplify their impact and transform industries. Through collaboration, we create communities for change, proving that business can be a force for good.

How B Corps work together
