Time Investment

The track consists of five in-person sessions, each lasting 3 hours, totaling a minimum investment of 15 hours over 4 months. To maximize the program's benefits, companies are encouraged to spend an extra 2 or more hours per week working independently on their BIA.

Participants will have access to four online office hours between the in-person modules, ensuring continuous guidance and support. The program aims to help businesses achieve a measurable enhancement in their impact.

After completing the track, businesses may choose to pursue B Corp Certification. This involves submitting their assessment with a €250 verification fee, followed by an annual B Corp membership fee, ranging from €500 to €50,000, depending on company revenue​.

The Building Better Business programme has two tracks: B Corp and Economy for the Common Good (ECG). Both tracks provide a clear roadmap to transform your business into a change agent and equip you with the tools necessary to actively measure and enhance your company’s impact.
