Appinio as a B corp

What is a B Corp certification?

Benefit Corporations (or B Corps) are companies that meet rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. Essentially, it's like a gold star for companies that truly care about people, the planet, and profits.
What does it mean for Appinio to be B Corp-Certified?

Our mission is to balance purpose and profit, and we've made significant strides towards that goal in the last two years. We've introduced new processes internally and externally and launched initiatives that will touch on everything from onboarding to impact measurement.
Why is Appinio a B Corp?

Our high scores in governance reflects our transparency, ethics, and consideration for stakeholders, and our DNA is built on the belief that great people need to be enabled to do great things. As such, we try to set the bar high, taking excellent care of our workers, with health benefits and flexible policies that allow everyone to perform at their best.
What is our mission as a B corp?

We believe that through being conscientious about the world around us ,we can help make the world a better place for everyone.

"As a B Corp, we are committed to constantly reviewing and transparently reporting on our social and environmental impact. We want to set a good example and demonstrate that building a profitable, high-growth business only comes with a commitment to the people around us and our environment. We’re looking to set an example that we hope others will follow.”

Not just “another sustainability thing”

B Corp certification is more than just a one-time act of environmental or social consciousness. It’s a milestone which assesses a company's overall impact and demands ongoing accountability and commitment, while also connecting companies to a global community of impact-driven businesses.

We're proud to join the ranks of 6,000+ other global companies and notable brands like Allbirds, Patagonia, Warby Parker, and Kickstarter.

“B Corp certification is not just a one-time event, it’s a commitment to continuous improvement, and we’re looking forward to sharing our journey. We might have a new badge to display, but our mission has always been the same: to prove that doing good & business success go hand-in-hand”
