In today’s compliance-driven world, businesses must show that profit aligns with purpose. One of the clearest ways to prove this is by achieving B Corp certification — a rigorous, independent assessment of social and environmental performance.
At TechForGood, becoming a Certified B Corporation® in 2024 was not just a milestone. It validated the foundation of our impact model and positioned us to help clients meet rising ESG requirements while delivering measurable good.
Motivations and Vision
Our vision has always been bold: 1 million Human Connections by 2030. To achieve it, we’ve built an impact model where every ICT procurement decision counts — not only for clients’ compliance needs, but also for people, communities, and the planet.
Joining the global B Corp movement signalled that TechForGood is part of a community redefining success in business: from social procurement to inclusive employment, ethical supply chains to sustainable ICT.
The Certification Process
The B Corp assessment by B Lab was rigorous. It examined governance, employee practices, community engagement, and environmental stewardship. Every policy, procurement pathway, and supply chain detail was tested against high standards of accountability.
This challenge strengthened our resolve. By embedding compliance into ICT procurement, we ensured our clients — and our own organisation — could demonstrate impact that withstands audit and assurance.
Key Achievements Along the Way
Catalysing Connections: Delivered 132,000 Human Connections in FY25, enabling access to work, health, and services.
Carbon Offsets: Neutralised 306.47 tCO₂-e through verified projects. Offsets are our secondary lever, while Recover-E becomes the long-term driver of circularity and carbon reduction.
Recover-E: Launched in FY25 as an ISO-certified IT Asset Disposition service. From FY26, it will deliver measurable climate and compliance benefits.
Employment Pathways: Established a pipeline to bring Priority Jobseekers with disability into ICT procurement delivery roles, with impact beginning in FY26.
Impact and Outlook
B Corp certification affirms our model: impact is not an add-on — it is the foundation. It positions TechForGood as Australia’s only female-led ICT supplier that is Carbon Neutral, a Certified B Corporation, and a Certified Social Enterprise.
Looking forward, we will:
Scale Recover-E as our primary lever for climate and circularity.
Grow Employment Pathways into a powerhouse workforce delivering compliance-enabled ICT.
Reinvest surplus into Catalysing Connections to accelerate progress toward 1 million Human Connections by 2030.
Conclusion
For TechForGood, B Corp certification is more than recognition. It is proof that our business is built for compliance, community, and climate. By aligning profit with purpose, we help organisations meet their ASRS, NGERS, and social procurement obligations while driving genuine impact.
Together with our clients and partners, we are proving that business designed for impact can deliver both climate and community outcomes.
