Last Call! Important v6 Standards Deadline 36:33

för 27 dagar sedan36:33

36:33

Last month, B Lab Global made an announcement that affects some small-to-medium existing B Corps. If your B Corp is due to submit for recertification between July 1 and December 31, 2025, and you would like to be evaluated under Version 6 (i.e., the current version of the standards), you must submit your assessment by June 30, 2025 — six months earlier than many of us expected. If you miss that deadline, or your submission date is in 2026 or later, you will be moved onto the new standards (new B Corps still have until the end of 2025 to submit under Version 6 of the standards). Emmy and Ryan explore why this change caught many off guard, what it means for businesses of different sizes, and how companies can navigate the revised timeline. Whether you’re directly affected or just keeping up with the evolving B Corp landscape, this episode offers essential insights to help you stay prepared.

Setting the Record Straight: Dr. Bronner's, Purpose Pledge, B Corps, & LIFT Economy 26:06

för 9 weeks sedan26:06

26:06

A new initiative called the " Purpose Pledge " launched earlier this week. The timing—coinciding with Dr. Bronner’s decision to decertify as a B Corp—has led to questions about whether Purpose Pledge is designed to compete with B Corp certification. Folks are also understandably confused about why LIFT Economy is involved. In this episode, we set the record straight. What is the Purpose Pledge, and how does it differ from B Corp Certification? Why did LIFT Economy help co-create it? Why do we believe B Corp and Purpose Pledge are complementary, not competing? View the show notes: https://go.lifteconomy.com/blog/purpose-pledge-b-corp-setting-the-record-straight If you haven’t already, we highly recommend listening to our most recent episode with Farmer Cee Stanley for additional context: https://go.lifteconomy.com/blog/dr-bronners-decertifies-as-a-b-corp Support the show We want to hear from you!
