About B Lab
The B Corp movement is an initiative of B Lab that was founded in 2006. This originally American nonprofit organization is engaged worldwide in developing, awarding and monitoring the B Corp certification. B Lab is now active in 101 countries and since 2015 in the Netherlands. There are currently 8,984 B Corps worldwide, including 1,890 in Europe and 309 in the Netherlands. The B Corp status shows that the company focuses not only on commercial, but also on social and sustainable purposes, thus doing its part for a better world. To achieve this status, companies go through a strict assessment. This involves an evaluation of the company’s social, environmental and societal performance, as well as transparency and accountability. Companies that score at least 80 out of 200 points in this assessment may call themselves a B Corp. After that, they must recertify every three years to maintain their B Corp status.
