Why did you want to become a Certified B Corporation?
Becoming a Certified B Corporation was important to us to reinforce that we are practicing
what we preach about the importance and value of impact. It helps aligned investors and
stakeholders engage with our brand and mission.
The process of becoming a B Corp made us a better business, ensuring we operate with the
highest standards. We now have a recognised benchmark to encourage the impact
enterprises we invest in to adapt.
Being part of the B Corporation ecosystem enables us to connect with and learn from like-
minded organisations.
What makes Beckon Capital unique as a business? Tell us some of the areas where you have the biggest impact, or some of the little changes you've made to make a difference.
We are creating a new asset class, Australian Impact Growth Equity, helping businesses,
people and the planet have more sustainable futures. This provides a win-win opportunity for
investors to get quality returns and improve positive impact.
Through growth equity, we are mobilising capital and capability where it is needed most, at
the local level. This means that small businesses are freed from the restrictions, pressure
and cashflow implications of debt and get the support they need to grow.
Do you have any tips for aspiring B Corps about the certification process?
Jump in and give it a go.
Don't be disheartened if you don’t achieve certification the first time round, the certification
process is rigorous. Regardless of your outcome, the B Impact Assessment will introduce
comprehensive standards of social and environmental performance that can help you
improve your business.
