This year’s 2nd Warsaw B Corp Summit “Let’s regenerate” Planet, People, Purpose, (Profit)” is the continuation of our last year’s edition when we set up the ground for the growing B Corp movement in Poland. This edition is intended to build up the community that will become the driver of change and share the feeling of emergency as an impulse to act.

The time is NOW to move from talk into urgently needed action. At COP26, there is the opportunity to build commitment and plans toward concrete action to curb climate change and reframe the future of business, economies and global systems. Let’s turn that opportunity into action.

“It takes an entire village to raise a child”. Inspired by this African proverb, the @JornadaX Gincana was conceived by LiveLab, which joined forces with Coletivo ASAS.BR.COM and NOW Partners, to call for emergency action throughout the country and encourage the return to in-person classes. It aims to unite the community, welcome teachers and reduce school dropouts and dropouts.
