About Corporate Knights
Corporate Knights Inc. is a leading sustainable-economy media and research organization. Founded in 2002 by Toby A. Heaps, Paul Fengler and Peter Diplaros, Corporate Knights is committed to advancing an economic system in which both people and the planet can thrive.
Our award-winning magazine, Corporate Knights, is a magazine of choice among business leaders, policy-makers and investment decision-makers. Published quarterly, Corporate Knights maintains an editorial focus on climate change, responsible investing, and the ideas, actions and innovations that shape a sustainable economy. With a circulation of 126,000+, our magazine is distributed in The Globe and Mail, The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal.
Corporate Knights’ research division produces global sustainability rankings, research reports and financial product ratings based on corporate sustainability performance. Our flagship ranking is the Global 100 Most Sustainable Corporations in the World, released each year during the World Economic Forum.
In 2012, Corporate Knights spearheaded the Council for Clean Capitalism, a multi-industry group of leading Canadian companies dedicated to advocating for economic and social-policy changes that reward responsible corporate behaviour.
We believe that companies meet their highest purpose when they serve the interests of people and the planet, so we are proud to be the first print business magazine and research firm in the world to certify as a B Corp. As an example of our commitment to the highest standards of social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency, this website is 100% powered by Canadian renewable electricity.
