In addition, the team supports clients in the process of acquiring Benefit Corporation status and B Corp certification, and assists company bodies with regard to sustainable corporate governance. Finally, the Team deals with the regulatory and normative aspects of the impact measurement and non-financial reporting processes, also thanks to the collaboration with consulting companies and research centres operating in this sector.
