B Lab is a non-profit organization committed to supporting B Corporations, a new type of entity that is purpose-driven and creates benefit for all stakeholders, not just shareholders. Join us for exploration of this new model to learn:
• What they are
• How they institutionalize stakeholder interests
• How they meet comprehensive and transparent social and environmental performance standards
• How they build collective voice through the power of a unifying brand
Speakers include Jay Coen Gilbert and Bart Houlahan, co-founders of B Lab. You can find out more about Jay and Bart here: http://www.bcorporation.net/about/behind_b_lab.php

The Mission of the Hanson Bridgett Sustainable Business Practice
The mission of the Hanson Bridgett Sustainable Business Practice is to help businesses and other organizations with sustainable agendas succeed and to help foster the growth of the sustainable business movement. We created the Sustainable Business Forum to provide a regular and ongoing opportunity for business people to share ideas and best practices, develop contacts and get access to capital and resources—in short, to help them succeed.
Each month the Sustainable Business Forum features expert speakers from varying sectors of the sustainable movement who will provide insight into one of the important issues of sustainability affecting the business world. In addition to each presentation, attendees are provided with ample time to connect with other like-minded people and learn about the latest developments and trends in sustainable business.
