Innovating for Impact
‘Beyond Profit: B Corps Innovating for Impact’ celebrates the works of Singapore based B Corps - businesses that prioritise social and environmental impact alongside financial success.
The last event in 2022 was attended by more than 50 prominent leaders from the public and private sectors. Minister Grace Fu, Minister for Sustainability and the Environment of Singapore was amongst the guests and officiated the event.
This year, we are bringing together leaders and innovators from various B Corps who are using their businesses to drive positive change in their communities and beyond. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn about the innovative approaches these B Corps are taking to tackle pressing social and environmental issues through a panel discussion, a curated exhibition of various B Corp companies and an evening network session.
Through this event, we aim to highlight the importance of business as a force for good in Singapore and to inspire others to embrace the B Corp movement and its values.
