Advocacy 101: The Business of Democracy
About this event
As a business leader in the B Corp community, you aren't just an observer of the economy—you are an architect of its future, with the boots-on-the-ground expertise required to drive systemic change. Join ASBN and B Lab for a workshop that serves as your strategic entry point to ensure your influence reaches the halls of power where the rules are written. We will demystify the advocacy process and provide the concrete tools you need to use your experience from running a business to confidently shape public policy. You will leave with a clear, actionable understanding of how to advocate for policies that support the B Corp vision of prioritizing people and planet, alongside ASBN’s complementary vision of an inclusive, regenerative economy. Discover how taking direct action on these key policies can protect your values while contributing directly to your business success.
