Audience becomes a certified B Corporation

We’re proud to share that Audience is now a certified B Corporation, recognised for meeting high standards of social and environmental performance and accountability. The certification reflects the values we already hold ourselves to, united with our clients, focusing on building experiences that put people first and building responsible design into every moment.

The B Corp certification asks businesses to show, openly, how they consider people, communities and the planet in every decision. That matters to us. Experiences should create value beyond a moment in time, and the way we work should reflect the same care we put into what we make.

For us, being a B Corp is a commitment to keep improving: listening to our team and partners, designing with inclusion and wellbeing in mind, and measuring our impact so we can reduce harm and increase benefit. It’s not a badge it’s how we hold ourselves accountable to the standards we want to live by.

The B Corp certification evaluates how a company operates and the impact it creates across five areas: governance, workers, community, environment, and customers. For Audience, it gives structure to the way we already work, ensuring the choices we make as a business, as a team and with our clients create value that lasts. In practice that means:

Clear governance that shapes how we scope, cost and deliver projects, with transparent decision-making and accountability built into every brief

A people-first workplace that supports fair pay, wellbeing and development, so our teams show up energised, focused and proud of the work they deliver

Stronger community impact through considered supplier selection, prioritising diverse, independent and local partners across logistics, production, build, catering and content

Inclusive experience design embedded from the outset, considering access, neurodiversity, language, safety and comfort as core design inputs, not last-minute fixes

Lower-impact event delivery, using measurable tools to reduce waste, energy use and unnecessary freight, and making sustainability decisions visible to clients

Reduced-fee support for fellow B Corps, helping purpose-led brands create experiences that punch above their weight

Experiences designed to genuinely improve participation, learning and wellbeing, using thoughtful data capture, responsible tech and clear post-event insight sharing

Bettering our business betters our work, and B Corp’s five pillars give us a practical framework to create impact and share our progress openly as we go.

"From the beginning, we’ve tried to do the right thing instinctively. B Corp helps us turn that instinct into a standard we can share with our clients. It keeps us focused on how we work as much as what we deliver, and it underlines our commitment to keep improving the experiences we create and the impact they have over time."

B Corp is both an important milestone and a starting line. As our work increasingly takes us beyond the UK, we’ll use the B Corp framework to set and uphold standards we’re proud of wherever we operate. That means on every project and in any country, we hold ourselves, our clients and our global partners to the same expectations, reflecting our care for people, communities and the planet.

We’re excited to be joining a global community of change-makers and we’re keen to work with more like-minded brands. To make the ‘brand experience for good’ mission more accessible, we're offering 50% off our fees to help our fellow B Corps show up and stand out.
