It is becoming increasingly evident that the challenges we face cannot be resolved by solitary heroes. Achieving systemic change that aligns with the current needs – that drives the transition to an inclusive and regenerative economy – necessitates embracing our interconnectedness and committing to collective action. However, running a successful business is challenging enough as it is. Are B Corp leaders also expected to establish the foundations of an effective community on their own?
That's precisely why we exist! B Local CT is dedicated to supporting B Corps in Connecticut by facilitating deeper connections and fostering collaboration among those who utilize business as a force for good. When B Corps come together, they establish a network of trust and accountability that extends to government, nonprofit organizations, and other stakeholders. Together, we create a robust and dependable network tailor-made for effecting systemic change.
B Local CT Membership is your way to contribute to this movement within your local community. It affirms your commitment to business as a force for good as an individual. As a company, whether or not you’re a certified B Corp, membership in B Local provides an opportunity for learning and engagement among your employees.
As we aim to enhance the connectivity, brand marketing, and impact of all Connecticut B Corps, our updated Member benefits will deliver value not only through participation but also through amplification. We are expanding our storytelling and integrated sponsorship offerings to ensure that Connecticut citizens, employees, consumers, and investors recognize your remarkable work and have a clearer invitation to join the movement.
In summary, our Members make it possible for B Local CT to serve as a facilitator, connector, and resource for the entire community.
