Collective

At Collective, it's not all about merging award-winning creativity with cutting-edge technology to grow our clients' businesses. Looking out for others is at the heart of who and what we are, whether supporting the Lincs2Nepal charity or being a BCorp B Lab. It's also why we occasionally do pro bono work. One of our recent pro bono projects was helping Regional Screen Scotland raise much-needed funds for a new Screen Machine. Screen Machine is a mobile cinema that enables people in remote parts of Scotland to feel connected and access the latest Hollywood movies—something most of us take for granted. Zack Gardner, our Associate Creative Director, spoke to LBBonline - Little Black Book about why we took on the project, how Alan Cummings got involved, and what Screen Machine means to the communities it supports.

Last week, our Chief Growth Officer, Oliver Disney, attended B Lab Louder Than Words Festival in Oxford, the largest concentration of BCorps in the world. As experienced and engaged BCorp members, our highlights included: ❤️ Feeling the love from the BCorp community and connecting with other BCorps 🌍 Learning how ESG and DEI are profoundly connected and how both are critical to each other's success 🏊♂️ 🚗 How brands like Finisterre and Motability Operations Ltd are using technology and passion to produce adaptive products for their community 🗺 How government, industry and community need to come together to help tackle climate action ⚡ What brands like Goodenergy are doing to decentralise green power generation and put more power into consumers' hands 💯 How directly investing at a local level can have x100 more impact than investing at a national level As more companies build their futures with the environment and society in mind, and the BCorp movement goes from strength to strength - we get prouder every day of our certification.
