Denver, CO. (PRWEB) January 13, 2015 -- CauseLabs, a Denver-based company building mobile and web applications to enhance and accelerate social impact organizations, today announced it has received B Corp certification, placing it among more than 1,200 businesses in 37 countries meeting higher standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.
“The B Corp model is completely in sync with CauseLabs’ approach to business, and we are proud to meet the program’s challenging requirements,” said T.J. Cook, CauseLabs CEO. “Our B Corp certification will keep us accountable to the things we value and ensure we are staying true to our mission of delivering technology that solves social problems.”
CauseLabs leverages web and mobile technologies to build custom digital tools to positively impact people around the world. For more than 10 years, the company has empowered great cause organizations to move from idea to execution through strategic workshops and full digital product development breakthroughs.
“CauseLabs achieved B Corp certification on its first try in part because of its workplace culture and business approach that makes for a smaller footprint on the world,” said Kim Coupounas, director of B Lab’s Colorado office. “It is now part of a diverse, highly entrepreneurial group of over 50 Colorado-based B Corps that are raising awareness of this new and better way of doing business and using their businesses as a force for good in Colorado and the world.”
