Bristol Tech Firm TV Net Joins Global B Corp Community

In today’s business landscape, profit alone is no longer enough. Increasingly, consumers, employees, and investors expect companies to demonstrate a positive impact on society and the environment.

One of the most credible ways a business can prove its commitment is by achieving B Corp certification.

B Corp status, awarded by the non-profit B Lab, goes far beyond a marketing badge. It signals that a company meets rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. Certified businesses are evaluated across key areas including governance, employee treatment, community engagement, and environmental footprint. To qualify, companies must complete the B Impact Assessment, achieve a minimum score of 80, and commit to recertifying every three years—ensuring accountability and continuous improvement.

The benefits of certification are significant. First, it builds brand trust: consumers are more likely to support businesses that align with their values. Second, it helps attract and retain talent, particularly among younger workers who are motivated by purpose as much as pay. Third, B Corp status appeals to investors and partners who increasingly look for sustainable and ethical practices.

A standout local example is Bristol-based TV Net, recently certified as a B Corp under the leadership of owner Andrew Nash. Specialising in providing technology solutions to businesses, TV Net’s achievement demonstrates how regional firms can compete on the world stage when it comes to ethics and sustainability.

“This certification proves that running a successful business and doing the right thing for people and the planet can go hand in hand,” says Andrew Nash, owner of TV Net.

By becoming part of the global B Corp community, TV Net joins thousands of like-minded businesses working to balance people, planet, and profit. For Nash, the certification reflects a long-term vision: building a business that delivers commercial success while making a positive difference.

In essence, B Corp certification is more than a status symbol. It’s a public declaration that a company is serious about responsible business, sustainable growth, and creating lasting value for all stakeholders.
