Earlier this month, HewardMills participated in the inaugural B Corp Festival in Oxford, a two-day event assembling the largest gathering of B Corps to date. With a theme of ‘Louder than Words’, it was a great opportunity to connect with businesses from numerous sectors, all driven by a common purpose to actively create a positive impact in the world. 

During the event, it was encouraging to be part of many powerful conversations around purpose, inclusion and how businesses can truly create equitable opportunities for employees. While purpose is a powerful motivator, our view and a general consensus amongst others trying to create change is that measurable efforts must accompany it.  

As a provider of global Data Protection Officer services, we are committed to driving privacy and governance as a vehicle of positive social impact. To that end, we are currently running an initiative to support B Corp businesses with privacy notice reviews. This is designed to help create a strong starting point of governance and compliance by ensuring the basics of data protection are established.   

Contact our team to learn more about our B Corp initiative and how you can use robust governance to drive better business.
