Designing for Sustainability

Appendix B. Acknowledgments

B Corp Leaders Profiled in This Book

More than a dozen of the people interviewed either own or work for certified B Corporations, or B Corps, which is why you read a lot about B Corps in this book. They are leading a revolution to use business as a force for good in the world. Supporting these businesses means supporting a future with a shared and durable prosperity for all. In addition to their bios, they also shared why being a B Corp is important to them.
