ERA becomes certified B Corp

ERA has been certified as a B Corp. 

It has acheived this by meeting standards of social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency set by B Labs, which runs the certification. B Labs is a non-profit network and measures standards across five key areas: workers, customers, community, governance and the environment. 

Certification also requires companies to adopt stakeholder governance, committing to consider the impact of business decisions on all stakeholders - not just shareholders.

B Corps must recertify every three years, undertaking the full B Impact Assessment and verification process to demonstrate they continue to meet rising standards

“Infrastructure-as-a-Service has an enormous role to play in how the creative industries adapt - from sustainability targets and resource constraints to hybrid working and global collaboration,” said Sean Baker, managing director at ERA. “Becoming a Certified B Corporation reflects our belief that technology should advance creativity while contributing positively to the world around us. This certification formalises our long-held commitment to balancing profit with purpose.”

“We are proud to stand alongside other certified businesses that are reshaping our economic system,” said Sue Baker, ERA’s B Corp lead. “Together, we are shifting the behaviour, culture, and structure of capitalism - moving from extraction to regeneration, and from individualism to interdependence. Becoming a B Corp is not a finish line; it’s a commitment to ongoing improvement.”
