Social Impact Architects is no stranger to creating positive changes — this is the fourth year in a row that the company has been named as a “Best for the World” by the nonprofit B Lab. The business exceeds expectations by being selected as an honoree in four different categories, including Overall, Changemakers, Customers, and Governance.
It’s not easy to become a “Best for the World” company, as honorees were chosen from over 2,500 Certified B Corporations.
B Corps are businesses verified by B Lab if they’ve had a positive impact on people and planet, and if they were able to both do good and turn a profit. If a B Corp scored in the top 10th percentile in its respective impact area on the B Impact Assessment, it was featured on a “Best for the World” list.
Those honored in the Overall category scored in the top 10th percentile across all impact areas. If you want to learn more about what the B Impact Assessment measures, check out the breakdown of all categories here.
