Louder Than Words may have ended, but its impact is only just beginning. This unprecedented gathering of over 2,000 B Corps, allies, activists, and purpose-driven businesses has sparked a wave of momentum across the UK and beyond. Together, we’ve shown that when businesses unite with a mission, they can drive lasting change across industries, communities, and global challenges.
A Legacy of Action and Transformation
More than a festival, Louder Than Words was a launching pad for the future of business as a force for good. Over two days, Oxford was transformed into a hub of connection, collaboration, and creativity. Attendees tackled critical topics like climate justice, inclusivity, and economic equity through innovative sessions designed to go beyond conversation, fueling actionable solutions and commitments that will carry forward in the months and years ahead.
With Oxford as our backdrop, we broke new ground together. Through headline moments, community-driven discussions, and various fringe events across the city, we brought the B Corp movement to life on an unprecedented scale. Each voice contributed to a collective legacy, reinforcing the movement’s commitment to reshape business with purpose and impact.
Though Louder Than Words has concluded, its legacy of community, courage, and change lives on. Learn more about the legacy of the festival.
