Ready or not, a new B Corp era has begun. Former B Lab standards analyst Jeffrey Stewart joins us to unpack what Version 2 means in practice. We discuss AI-enabled audits, mandatory documentation, digital audit platforms, major versus minor nonconformities, the shift to a five-year certification cycle, and more. If your company is preparing for recertification or trying to understand how European regulation and third-party auditors are reshaping the movement, this conversation provides expert insight.
