What to expect?

An interactive and collaborative session telling the story of our journey as one of the first building services design practices to become B Corp in the UK. Including tangible examples of how our small but intentionally diverse team of engineering professionals are pulling together to ensure the business operates as an unstoppable force for good. Hear directly from our Founding Director, Marian Ferguson who has for decades bucked the construction industry trend as one of very few female design engineers. Marian’s story shows that when vision, skill and determination combine, anything is possible, inspiring others to lean into challenges, ignore the naysayers and keep the faith that change is possible.

Why join this session?

As well as sharing our story on becoming a B Corp SME in the construction industry, we want to hear from you about your successes, challenges and aspirations for the future of the B Corp movement. This will be an interactive session where everyone has the opportunity to participate and learn from the wealth of experience in the room.

What are the key outcomes?

Demonstrate the wider environmental impact of our built environment including the potential to add social value to our workforce, clients and wider communities. Collate key takeaways to feed back to B Corp so that we can take a multi sector approach to continuous improvement within the network and inform improvements to the accreditation process in order to smooth the path for future members.
