Editor's Notes

  1. The benefit corporation structure is not just useful for investors and companies, but is a foundational shift to align the interests of business with those of society, holding business accountable to internalize externalities and giving directors permission and protection to pursue impact alongside profit, and even to make trade-offs if they desire. Traditional business model: Shareholder value and financial returns B Corp business model: Using business as a force for good - Stakeholder value & social, environmental and financial value
