Winners of the annual award, which is led by the non-profit organisation, B Lab, are named the “Best for the World™” and their scores are measured within the impact areas of community, customers, environment, governance, and workers that forms the B Impact Assessment (BIA). Corporations with the winning scores are within “the global top 5% in their corresponding size group.”

Governance: These corporations succeed in using business as a means of generating positive impact. They ascertain that their mission will continue to prioritize transparency and accountability, by making their ethos and principles the central theme of their company.

Workers: These corporations are focused on their workforce, expressed through efforts that strengthen their employees skills, support dignity and equity, such as inclusivity in hiring practices.
