BIP UK are a Certified B Corporation
We are a certified B Corp
What is a B Corp?
Certified B Corporations are businesses that successfully and continuously balance their social and environmental impact against profits, helping to foster a more sustainable and inclusive economy in the process.
We want our business to be doing the right thing while redefining the way people see success in the business world. B Corp certification provides the right structure and framework for us to do this and is a great advert to attract and retain the people who share our values of being a better business for the future.
Achieving B Corp is not a one-off effort, but a continuous component for how we operate as a business. The certification is a first step in our journey to being a force for good, and we want to use the framework to continuously improve above and beyond as a company.

My BIP Group colleagues, based across the world in 13 countries, have shown how individual actions compound to achieve great things for both our clients and wider society. Together, we have achieved a lot and I am incredibly proud of everyone’s hard work and dedication.
I also recognise that in several areas we have more to do. Whilst I feel a sense of pride as I look back over the past year, I also feel a renewed drive to take proactive steps to do better.
