March marks a month of action as we join the global celebration of B Corp™ Month.
At Projects, we are proudly part of the movement of Certified B Corps™ who aim to think boldly, act for change and demand a better future. For us, the B Corp certification is more than a mark – it’s a way of seeing the world.
This year’s B Corp™ Month campaign captures an attitude of transformation, inviting us to step into the world of Gen B: the generation of people using business to create real, positive change.
Check out our dedicated B Corp™ Month web page for details on our full programme of events and initiatives running throughout the month. We’ve got inspiring talks, hands-on workshops, community meet-ups and a whole host of opportunities to connect and create a positive impact.
Team perspectives on the value of B Corp™ Certification:
As we step into B Corp™ Month, we wanted to share the stories behind our work to be part of this campaign. By speaking to our team members, we highlight how every role contributes to creating a better future. Their insights illustrate the passion and commitment that drives our sustainable, ethical business practices at Projects.
