B Local PDX is a group of Certified B Corporations from Oregon & Southwest Washington working to foster and deepen connections among organizations in our region who share our purpose and passion for using business as a force for good.
About B Local PDX
We’re a community that helps business people act on their purpose to achieve socio-economic and environmental impact through meaningful relationships.
We work to provide certification support for aspiring and existing B Corps, connections for growth opportunities, and collaboration around social & environmental impact.
B Local PDX Events
One of the ways we support our local B Corp community is by hosting events! We host:
Lunch and Learns that bring in community members to highlight topics like gratitude, solar energy, architectural sustainability, and more!
B 101’s where companies who are considering certification can come and ask questions!
BLD is our annual day long event that is always the highlight of the year - we have keynote speakers, breakout rooms, and plenty of opportunities for you to connect with community.
B Bash! True to it’s name, B Bash is a celebration of all things B Corp
