nlmtd Certified B Corp
nlmtd is a Certified B Corp! After a rather long and intensive journey, we are now a Certified B Corp. We are proud to be part of the B Corp community.
The certification helps us measure and improve our impact, aligning with our focus on futureproofing. At nlmtd, we strive to realize transitions with our clients that make sustainable and social impact, such as the energy transition and food transition. By being part of the B Corp community, we can give even more substance to this: not just doing, but also measuring, clearly showing what impact we make together, and then continuously improving it.
What Exactly Is a B Corp?
The B Corp certificate is a recognized benchmark for measuring performance in ESG areas. B Corp stands for ‘Beneficial Corporation’ and is a certificate granted by the American non-profit organization B Lab to commercial enterprises that meet various ESG-related requirements. With now over 7,000 certified B Corps, this initiative has grown since 2006 into a global movement that uses ‘business as a force for good’. A B Corp values all ‘stakeholders’ equally and effectively balances a company’s attention and purpose for ‘people, planet, and profit’, motivated by the belief that there’s more to that matters than just profit.
To become a B Corp and recertify every three years, a company must undergo an extensive assessment that evaluates the organization’s impact in five areas: “governance, workers, environment, customers, and community“.
Governance
Evaluates the overall mission, ethical conduct, accountability, and transparency of nlmtd as an organization.
Workers
Assesses nlmtd's relationship with its advisors.
Environment
Evaluates nlmtd's environmental performance.
Customers
Evaluates nlmtd's environmental performance.
Community

We have just become a Certified B Corp, but it doesn’t stop after receiving the certificate. The values of B Corp as a ‘force for good’ fit seamlessly with our mission – actively contributing to a sustainable future. At nlmtd, we believe in continuous improvement, so our sustainability journey continues. Our B Corp certification shows that we’re on the right track, but we have many more plans in the making.
