Istoria Group is now a Certified B Corp!
We are thrilled to announce that Istoria Group is now a Certified B Corporation®, joining a global community of over 5,000 businesses committed to measuring social and environmental impact.
B Corp Certification is awarded by non-profit network B Lab, who state that ‘Certified B Corporations are leaders in the global movement for an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy.’
This transformative accreditation, which also extends to Istoria Group’s constituent companies - events, exhibition and symposia designers Ignition, purposeful digital designers Tiny Spark (as part of Ignition) and hospitality, retail and branding designers Phoenix Wharf - is the latest in a series of landmark business achievements for our ground-breaking SME. Ignition, for example, is still the only company in its industry to hold The Queen’s Award for Enterprise for Sustainable Development (2020 – 2025), alongside three ISO certifications (ISO 20121, ISO 14001 and ISO 9001), whilst Istoria Group, Ignition and Phoenix Wharf have, within the last five years, won over 20 awards for project creativity, leadership and people management.
Istoria Group was founded on the principle of balancing people and planet with profit, whilst delivering great creative work for our clients. We like to think we’re an SME that constantly boxes above our weight and we commit to continuing to do exactly that - and helping our clients do the same!
The founding principles of B Corp – that business can be a force for good – is also what drives us.
Conducting business sustainably and with purpose has always been part of our DNA, ensuring that the long-term perspective always wins out over short-term gain.
So we’re feeling really proud about becoming a B Corp and we’re most excited about what comes next. And integrity and transparency will always remain at the heart of everything we do.
