Report: The case for purpose-driven business

The potential for businesses to positively impact the world is extraordinary, whether through improving people’s lives or the environment. This paper from ReGenerate shows how having a “purpose beyond profit” not only helps companies make a difference, but is also more likely to make them sustainable and successful.

Key findings

• The public want businesses to take greater responsibility for social and environmental issues;
• Businesses have the power to positively transform society – something that is really needed;
• Being purpose-driven is increasingly evidenced to lead to a business being more successful and sustainable.

This paper is structured around showing the overwhelming evidence behind each of these points. The polling was conducted by Hanbury Strategy on behalf of B Lab UK and ReGenerate.
