B Lab Switzerland has partnered with the Haute école de gestion de Genève (HEG)

B Lab Switzerland has partnered with the Haute école de gestion de Genève (HEG) as well as with the Institute of Accounting, Control and Auditing of the University of St. Gallen (ACA-HSG).

Joining forces with renowned academic institutions makes for a great opportunity to provide students first-hand exposure to the realities of businesses tackling sustainability challenges.

Andrea Baranzini, Director of HEG Geneva states “Academic institutions like HEG Genève play a key role in leading the change by training students to be responsible actors. This includes equipping students with the approaches and tools to make choices that steer our firms and organizations towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), but also inspiring them to take action and demonstrate leadership”.

B Lab Switzerland

B Lab Switzerland is the Swiss branch of a global non-profit organisation that supports a community of people using business as a force for good.

​A historic global culture shift is underway to harness the power of business to help address society’s greatest challenges. B Lab envisions a world where businesses have environmental preservation and social well-being at their core and manage their impacts. We believe that the business community can be part of the solution to global problems like wealth inequality, climate change, and social unrest. 

​This requires redefining the role businesses hold in society: businesses should compete not to be the best in the world, but the best for the world.

​We aim to accelerate this shift.
