B Corp Month: Raise your voice - Launch event in Stockholm

B Corp Month: Raise your voice - Launch event in Stockholm

It is time for Nordic businesses to show leadership! Join us as we kick off B Corp Month in Stockholm with a dynamic conversation on how businesses can use their voices to change society.

For the first time, B Corps across the Nordics have come together to sign a collective letter calling on businesses and consumers to take action. In the letter, to be published on 3 March, the B Corps explain why business contributes significantly to the climate and biodiversity crises, but are also the ones who can help build the solutions needed.

You will hear from David Ekelund, co-founder and CEO at Icebug, in dialogue with Gitte Rosholm, Manager at B Lab Nordics, as they reflect on values-driven leadership, activism, and taking a stand, even when it’s not easy.

There will also be plenty of opportunities to connect with co-host Bedow and other Swedish B Corps, exchange ideas, share learnings, and grow your network.

Program:

• 13:00–13:20: Welcome and launch of the collective letter 
  (Photo opportunity with the B Corps who signed the letter)
• 13:20–14:00: Conversation with David Ekelund, Icebug, and Gitte Rosholm, B Lab Nordics
• 14:00–15:00: Meet the B Corps: Get introduced to Bedow by Anders Bollman and the other the B Corps attending the event. A great chance to connect and network with the community!

📍Location: Bedow Office: Åsögatan 113, 116 24 Stockholm, Sweden

This event is open for anyone interested in the B Corp movement, collective action and how businesses can continuously improve their social and environmental impact. A light snack, coffee and tea will be served. 

The event is co-hosted by Bedow and B Lab Nordics.

We look forward to seeing you in Stockholm.
