What Will It Take to Build a Truly Inclusive Economy?
From: Certified B Corporation Feb-24-2022 05:31:am![]()
As a B The Change reader, you know and follow closely how the U.S. and global economy does not work for everyone. It was never meant to. We know the failings: climate change, racial injustice, gender inequities, extremes of poverty and food insecurity, and more. The innovation and scalability at the heart of capitalism should serve as a wellspring of solutions to these challenges. Some companies, like B Corps, use their business as a force for good can. But B Corps are still the exception.
There are billions of impact investment dollars and yet millions of Black, Indigenous, People Of Color and women-led ventures and entrepreneurs with highly fundable business ideas receive only a small share of available investment capital.

Join leaders from East Bay Community Foundation, Common Future (formerly BALLE), Rising Tide Capital, and B Lab for a dynamic discussion exploring what we can do. We want to ensure our capital flows and societal structures are lining up to support the kinds of communities and businesses that will lead us to the just, equitable, and regenerative future our children deserve.
This conversation is part of a series of free conversations leading up to Shift 2021, April 14-16, an exciting new digital event produced and led by JB Media, B Lab and some of the most passionate players in the social and environmental impact space rallying to make business a force for good.
