Confident Agency, an independent full-service communications agency with offices in Bucharest and Barcelona, has achieved international B Corp Certification, becoming the first agency in Romania and in Central and Eastern Europe to join the global B Corp movement. This milestone marks a turning point in the agency’s journey and in the regional creative industry.
Confident Agency joins an international community of over 9,700 companies certified as B Corps — organizations that meet the highest standards of social and environmental performance across five key areas: governance, community, environment, customers, and employees.
Achieving certification is the result of a rigorous assessment of an organization’s impact, verified by an international team of experts using the B Impact Assessment (BIA). This tool provides a clear and comprehensive diagnosis of an organization’s social and environmental performance. A minimum score of 80 points is required to qualify for certification.
“We care about our team, our clients, the environment, and making an impact in everything we do — and the B Corp Certification is a testament to our ongoing commitment to doing better. For Confident Agency, this is a major achievement. B Corp is not just a label; it’s a decision-making framework for businesses that want to thrive while creating a culture of positive impact. We scored highest in employee practices, client relationships, and social impact engagement. For us, this certification is not a destination but a journey — and we’ve just taken our first step. We’ll continue improving our processes and aligning with best practices to contribute to a fairer and more sustainable future,” said Mara Gojgar Constantin, founder of The Confident Group.
The certification process was guided by Corina Radu, CEO of Impact Market Romania and co-founder of Better Business Alliance – B, the B Corp representative in Romania.
“B Corp is more than a certification — it’s a movement toward a new economy. It’s about building a sector where success is not defined by being the best in the world, but the best for the world: for communities, employees, clients, and the environment. This certification for Confident Agency marks a meaningful step toward a more responsible business model focused on positive social and environmental impact. I’m proud to have supported them through this journey and confident their example will inspire both entrepreneurs and corporates across Romania and the region to adopt more ethical and sustainable business principles. Especially when at the moment, only five companies in Romania are B Corp certified. Our consultancy has guided two of them — Promateris and Ipanomi”, said Corina Radu.
With a strong focus on sustainable innovation, ethical practices, and social responsibility, the agency has recently launched Confident Impact, a business line dedicated to sustainability, led by Diana Dincă-Lupu as Head of Sustainability.
Confident Impact is a growing one-stop shop for CSR and ESG solutions. It offers full-service support, including ESG audits, sustainability reporting, strategic communication, compliance support, training programs, carbon footprint tracking tools, and wellbeing certifications.
Why Work With a B Corp Certified Communications Agency?
Choosing a B Corp certified agency means partnering with a team committed to high ethical and sustainability standards. It’s especially valuable for organizations with strong social/environmental goals or those reporting under frameworks such as GRI, CSRD, or ESRS.
B Corps bring transparency, accountability, and alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) — offering communication solutions that deliver value for business, community, and the planet.
There are currently over 9,700 certified B Corps worldwide, across 105 countries and 159 industries, employing nearly 980,000 people. In Europe alone, more than 2,000 companies had been certified by the end of 2024 — double the number in just two years. These businesses are committed to using profit and purpose as complementary forces for good.
