Intertwining Future Technology With Social Mission to Solve Real Problems

And the Role of the B Corp Community in Making It Happen

“OPTEL is applying its technologies to various other sectors by harnessing the power of end-to-end traceability, a process which helps reduce waste and optimize processes throughout the product lifecycle ─ from the cradle to the grave,” OPTEL President Louis Roy says. “OPTEL is now focusing on the deployment of traceability solutions to enable intelligent supply chains that will generate substantial efficiency gains, and this is the key to sustainable development.”

This technology is especially powerful given OPTEL’s understanding of the future of work — one that puts social mission and higher purpose at the root of the company’s raison d’etre and simultaneously has given it a competitive advantage over other similar companies in the field. “[Our] business initiative is perfectly aligned with our social mission, as it combines both profitability and sustainability. OPTEL firmly believes that these two concepts are not mutually exclusive and that companies can be profitable while having a positive impact on the planet,” Roy says.

As more consumers demand transparency in global supply chains — asking where their goods and services are coming from — the work of OPTEL becomes more and more valuable to companies around the globe. And working with OPTEL, with its stated mission and B Corp certification, meets the highest standard of transparent business relationships.

The role of growing the movement of businesses that exist to create a better world is one, as Roy says, that BDC is heavily involved in as a bank dedicated to entrepreneurs. In addition to helping these entrepreneurs meet their banking needs, BDC is investing in partnerships, public events and entrepreneurs’ workshops to help grow the B Corp movement across Canada.
