Champions Retreat is an opportunity for leaders of the B Corp movement and people using business as a force for good to connect, learn, and get inspired.
This year’s Champions Retreat will gather 600+ business and civic leaders from across the United States and Canada in Los Angeles for three days of thought partnership, peer exchange, and movement building focused on creating an inclusive and regenerative economy.

While there is no limit to the number that may attend, we do encourage attendance by individuals who occupy roles that can catalyze change within their organization. These often include functions in marketing, HR/Operations, sustainability, impact, strategy, and executive leadership.
B Lab generally does not provide scholarships for Champions Retreat. Instead, we utilized a “sliding-scale” ticketing system, which allows individuals to register at the price-level which most closely reflects their experience. We also have a limited number of volunteer slots for the event, the compensation for which is a free ticket.
