    invites you!

    November 26th: B Corp SDG Conference & Dinner @ KIT Royal Tropical Institute in Amsterdam

    Join us at a unique event at SDG house on 26 November, 2018 where Emmanuel Faber, CEO of Danone, Andrew Kassoy, co-Founder of BLab, among others, will discuss this ground breaking B Corp Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) initiative, and what it means to the world of business and the business of the world. 

    After the event, we organize a dinner for Harvard Business School Club and Ivy Circle members, during which there is time to discuss and hear more about the SDGs and business and the role of B Corp. Maurits Groen (BCorp, WakaWaka, Kipster), Lorna Davis (Senior Advisor to Danone CEO and Global Ambassador B Corp movement), and Marcello Palazzi (Global ambassador B Lab) will be joining us to deepen this discussion.

    The panel for the afternoon event will consist, among others, of:

    – Emmanuel Faber, Danone 
    – Marilou Goldstein-Brouwers, Triodos Investment Management

    About SDG and B Lab
    The Sustainable Development Goals are a once in a lifetime opportunity to unite the world around a common purpose of inclusion, fairness and sustainability. The challenge for business is how to operationalize the SDG’s and translate them into something practical and usable.

    B Lab, the not for profit behind the B Corporation movement, has entered into an agreement with the UN Global Compact to map the SDG’s to the B Impact assessment to solve this problem.
