B Corp: Team Consulting Project

Bethesda Green’s B Corp Initiative offers businesses in the DMV area a tool to benchmark, express, and improve their triple bottom line impact. As part of these efforts, student teams partner with companies in one of 2 ways: assistance with the Business Impact Assessment (BIA) Certification or a sustainability project that increases the company’s positive social or environmental impact. For Spring 2020, Business for Impact aims to recruit 1-2 teams of 3-5 students each. Please find more information here.

To Apply: Please send resume and cover letter by February 7, 2020 to Joe Weinstein (
jrw24@georgetown.edu).
Business for Impact is founded on the belief that companies can be a powerful force for good. We strive to help solve today's pressing problems through delivering world-class education, impactful student experience, and direct action with companies, nonprofits, and government. Our aspiration is that McDonough-educated leaders will be renowned for managing the triple bottom line – people, planet & profit.
