At the beginning of February we announced and celebrated the 39 Founding Canadian B Corporations. Now we have reason to celebrate again.
Today B Lab released the first ‘Best for the World’ lists, recognizing B Corps creating the most positive overall social and environmental impact. The ‘Best for the World’ companies score in the top 10% among more than 500 Certified B Corporations, in one of the most comprehensive and independent assessments of overall corporate impact. B Lab also released separate lists of the ‘Best for the Environment’, ‘Best for the Community’, and ‘Best for Workers’.
Included in the “Best for” lists are no less than six Canadian B Corps.
