Bay Area B Corp & Co-Op Mixer - The official launch event for BLD 2025!

Bay Area Co-Operators & B Corp community: we’re hosting a gathering next month for you! 

Certified B Corps and worker-owned businesses share a lot in common-they are working to make things better for their communities, the planet, and their workers. Often misunderstood by folks on the outside, they stand to benefit from increased connection and collaboration since both communities are thriving in the Bay Area.

Join us on October 20 to connect and kick off BLD 2025. There will be delicious food & beverages from Understory, a worker-owned restaurant and community space. There will be mingling, music from Oakland's DJ Karlita, and the chance to learn about both business communities.

Join us for a special pre-event happy hour from 5:00 to 6:00 PM for folks who identify as BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and/or People of Color). This is an opportunity to connect with other BIPOC leaders and professionals in the B Corp and worker-owned business communities before the main event. It’s a chance to build relationships, share experiences, and foster a more inclusive and supportive network.

RSVP to secure your spot! Light appetizers will be provided. Cash bar.

Thank you to our sponsors and supporters: B Local Bay Area, Fireweed Consulting, LLC, Market Organic Cooperative, Hypha Collective, and Understory.
