Genfit at the B Corp Event: Actions Speak Louder Than Words

Oct 17, 2024

Bcorp Louder Than Words Blog

At Genfit, we’ve always believed that sustainable business practices are essential for a brighter future. That’s why attending the recent event hosted by B corporation. Louder Than Words was such a meaningful experience for us.

What Is the B Corp Movement?

For those unfamiliar, B Corp certification is awarded to companies that meet the highest standards of social and environmental impact. The B Corp movement is redefining what success looks like in business by prioritising people and the planet, not just profit.

The event was an inspiring showcase of how businesses across different sectors are actively shaping a new kind of economy—one that works for everyone. From talks about reducing carbon footprints to discussions on how companies can positively influence their communities, the day was packed with insights and ideas.

Our Takeaways from the Event

  1. Commitment to Sustainability: It was reassuring to see how other companies, particularly fellow renewable energy businesses, are pushing sustainability forward. This aligns with our mission at Genfit to provide clean energy solutions that benefit both our clients and the environment.
  2. Accountability and Transparency: A recurring theme was the importance of being accountable to stakeholders—whether they’re customers, employees, or the planet itself. This is something we’re already committed to at Genfit, but the event inspired us to explore new ways to increase transparency in how we measure and report on our impact.
  3. Collaboration for the Greater Good: The event emphasised the need for collaboration among businesses to create real, lasting change. We connected with several inspiring B Corps and left with a renewed sense of purpose to work together to accelerate the adoption of sustainable energy.

Why This Matters to Us

At Genfit, we’re always looking for ways to not only provide cutting-edge solar PV solutions but also to contribute to a sustainable future. Attending this B Corp event reminded us of the importance of not just talking about sustainability but taking action.

We look forward to implementing some of the lessons we learned and continuing our journey towards becoming a business that creates a positive impact, both locally and globally.
