Second Consultation Summary Report

B Lab’s standards are at the heart of the #BCorp movement. They define the social, environmental, and governance best practices for businesses that drive our vision of an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative global economy that benefits all people and the planet.


From January through March of this year, we held our second consultation on the draft of the new standards. With invaluable input from over 1,000 contributors and more than 16,000 pieces of feedback, we're excited to share how your input has shaped the evolution of these standards and the steps we’re taking to finalize them in our new report.


We’re grateful for your continued engagement as it helps B Lab develop and deliver standards that are clear, attainable and impactful, as well as responsive to the contexts that our diverse community of B Corps operate within.

B Lab Singapore Fundraising Dinner

B Lab creates standards, policies and frameworks for businesses to advance their social and environmental impact and certifies companies known as B Corps who are leading the way. B Corps use profits and growth for a greater end: high quality job creation, reduced inequality, healthier regenerative environments and stronger communities. B Lab Singapore, a registered charity in Singapore, is excited to be a key Asian partner for this global movement. We seek to catalyse systems change to support our collective vision of an inclusive, equitable and regenerative economy. Our purpose is to redefine success in business by raising awareness of the B Corp Movement, building a community of engaged businesses, and engaging values-aligned partners.


To continue advancing this mission, we are hosting a fundraising event on Friday Nov 8th 2024 at Torno Subito, COMO Dempsey.
