Corporate Social Responsibility Report 2024
In our third annual Corporate Social Responsibility Report, we reflect on our efforts over the past year to practice Bergmeyer's core beliefs while celebrating the significant growth and changes our collaborative experienced in 2024.
We are proud of our accomplishments this past year, and we are eager to keep up the momentum. We are especially pleased to announce that in 2024, Bergmeyer became both a Massachusetts Benefit Corporation and a Certified B Corp.
As Bergmeyer continues evolving as an exemplary design collaborative, we are resolved to find more ways to connect, collaborate, explore, and especially MEASURE with boldness and curiosity in all four of our focus areas.
True collaboration — the open, respectful exchange of ideas — does more than simply produce better design thinking. It connects people, builds trust, and promotes a sense of belonging. By sharing the joy of the creative process, we empower others.
Bergmeyer believes in leveraging the power of interpersonal connection to improve the human experience, the quality of people's lives, and the world in which we live.
We are committed to using the resources of our organization to enrich and strengthen our communities, to support organizations that advance equity and social justice, to help mitigate and adapt to the climate crisis, and to create opportunities for young people to explore careers in design.
"As we reflect on 2024, I am proud to celebrate the ways that Bergmeyer has continued to practice as a design collaborative rooted in purpose. Our focus on equity, inclusivity, sustainability, and civic engagement in our work and business practice is central to Bergmeyer’s culture and core values, whether through our design efforts, the professional and civic commitments of our team, our scholarship programs, and our charitable giving. I am especially pleased to announce that in 2024, Bergmeyer became both a Massachusetts Benefit Corporation and a Certified B Corp. Bergmeyer’s third annual Corporate Social Responsibility Report describes these significant steps we are taking in committing our business to be a force for good in the world. The report also describes what we accomplished in 2024 as we use the resources of our organization to enrich and strengthen our communities, to support organizations that advance equity and social justice, to help mitigate and adapt to the climate crisis, and to create opportunities for young people to explore careers in design."
