EVERYTHING IN ITS RIGHT PLACE? INDUSTRY-FIRST FOR TELECOMMUNICATIONS CONSULTANCY.

Winchester-based telecommunications consultancy Kid-A has got the new year off to a flying start, joining a glittering group including Patagonia, Ben & Jerry’s and The Body Shop in becoming B Corp certified following a thorough accreditation process; making them the first company in their sector to do so.

Kid-A is a multi-award-winning disruptive, solutions business, partnering withmobile network operators to enhance and support in their core services.

The company demonstrated “high standards of verified performance, accountability, and transparency on factors from employee benefits and charitable giving to supply chain practices and input materials”- B Lab

The accreditation has been made by the B Corp™ movement, established in 2006 by B Lab, a non-profit company that is united on a common goal to create a more “inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy” - B Lab.

The B Corp certification process considers multiple factors including a company’s social and environmental performance, and its ability to “exhibit transparency by allowing information about their performance [to be] measured against B Lab’s standards” – B Lab. This process also focuses on ensuring companies manage their operations to benefit all stakeholders, not just their shareholders.

Since its birth, Kid-A’s philosophy has focused on being disruptive, imaginative and diverse in its operations and not afraid to go against the consensus to drive change in the industry.
