Welcome to Edmonton Startup Week 2019! We’re excited to celebrate our city’s startup and tech community with you. Thank you for building a schedule, inviting your friends, and helping us bring even more people together over shared passions.
B Corps make up a global movement of entrepreneurs who are dedicated to making a positive impact, whether it’s by improving the livelihoods of their workers, strengthening their community ties, or revolutionizing current green practices. The common thread linking Certified B Corporations®, such as Alberta-based Chandos and Fiasco Gelato, is that they were created and are run by people who define success as more than money – and they measure it using the B Corp assessment. This assessment will show you the ways your company has a strong and beneficial impact, as well as areas for improvement. If you are a business owner or employee interested in the B Corp Certification – or simply looking to complete an impact ‘health check’ for your business – then this seminar is for you!
