EN If you’ve never heard of a B Corp, now’s the perfect time to get acquainted, because ChangeNOW is officially a Certified B Corporation! As an impact company, we aspire to drive meaningful change in the world and lead by example. We are beyond excited to join this global movement of businesses that are proving you can do well and do good.
But what does it mean to be a B Corp? And why does it matter? Let’s break it down.
So, what’s a B Corp anyway?
If you’re wondering what it means to be a B Corp, think of it as more than just a badge of honor—it’s a pledge. B Corps are businesses that meet rigorous standards for social and environmental impact, accountability, and transparency. They commit to balancing profit with purpose, putting people and the planet first.
This movement started back in 2006 with a bold idea: what if businesses could be a force for good? Today, there are over 6,000 B Corps across 80 countries and 150 industries, all working toward a more inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy. And now, ChangeNOW is proud to count itself among them.
For us, this recognition is especially meaningful. Over the years, we’ve partnered closely with B Lab France, working together to build a more sustainable and inclusive economy. Achieving B Corp certification is a natural extension of this partnership and truly shows our dedication to positive impact.
Why the B Corp certification is a big deal
Becoming a B Corp isn’t a walk in the park—it’s a deep dive into how you run your business. The certification process is rigorous and covers five key impact areas:
- Gouvernance – How transparent and accountable is the business?
- Workers – Are employees supported, empowered, and treated fairly?
- Community – Is the company creating positive impacts in the communities it touches?
- Environnement – How sustainable are its operations and supply chains?
- Customers – Are its products and services making life better for its customers?
ChangeNOW scored 95 points on this assessment, well above the 80-point threshold required for certification, proving our dedication to making a positive difference.
“Becoming B Corp certified isn’t just any achievement; it reflects our team’s daily commitment to building a fairer, greener future and opens the door for others to follow us on this impact journey.”
— Rose-May Lucotte, Co-Founder of ChangeNOW
