The Editor’s Take: B Corp Gone Bad? One Company’s Fight Against a Beneficent Giant

The GearJunkie Podcast

What does it mean to be a B Corp? Adam sits down with former GearJunkie editor Sam Anderson to discuss his deep dive on Benefit Corporations, what it means to receive a B Corp certification, and why some companies aren’t recertifying — and why it doesn’t mean what you might think.
