ERA is proud to be a Certified B Corporation™, reinforcing our long-standing commitment to delivering responsible, sustainable Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) for the Media & Entertainment industry.

This certification recognises that how we operate matters as much as what we deliver – balancing performance, scalability and innovation with positive impact on people, communities and the planet.

What Being a B Corp Means at ERA

B Corp Certification verifies that ERA meets B Lab’s high standards of social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency.

It means we’ve been independently assessed across how we:

  • Treat our people

  • Support our customers

  • Engage with our community

  • Govern our business

  • Reduce our environmental impact

It also means we’re legally committed to considering the impact of our decisions on all stakeholders, not just shareholders.

Why B Corp Matters for Media & Entertainment

The creative industries are under growing pressure to deliver more – faster, globally and sustainably.

Infrastructure plays a critical role in that transition. From remote production and hybrid working to storage growth and render demand, the choices studios make today directly affect energy use, carbon footprint and long-term resilience.

Becoming a Certified B Corp reflects ERA’s belief that technology should enable creativity without compromising responsibility.

Part of a Global Movement for Better Business

By becoming a Certified B Corporation, ERA joins a global community of businesses committed to building a more inclusive, equitable and regenerative economy.

This isn’t a one-off achievement. B Corps must recertify every three years, meeting evolving standards and demonstrating continuous improvement.

As Sue Baker, ERA’s B Corp Lead, explains:

“Becoming a B Corp is not a finish line; it’s a commitment to ongoing improvement - moving from extraction to regeneration, and from individualism to interdependence.”

Responsible IaaS, Built for the Creative Sector

ERA provides Infrastructure as a Service designed specifically for Media & Entertainment, including:

Our platform helps studios:

  • Reduce reliance on power-hungry on-premise infrastructure
  • Optimise resource usage by scaling only when needed

A Support-First Ethos

With over 25 years of experience, ERA has always taken a support-first approach – working closely with customers to design infrastructure that fits real workflows, not generic templates.

B Corp Certification formalises values that have long shaped how we work:

• Long-term partnerships over short-term gains

• Transparency, trust and accountability

• Practical solutions that genuinely help customers scale

Looking Ahead: Continuous Improvement

B Corp certification provides a framework for ongoing progress. As standards evolve, ERA will continue to develop its practices across:

  • Sustainability and environmental impact
  • Governance and accountability
  • Workplace culture and wellbeing
  • Community and industry contribution

We see this as a natural extension of our role in helping the creative sector adapt, scale and thrive.
