Malta Officially Welcomes Its First B Corp™ – Steves&Co.
When a creative agency becomes a Certified B Corporation™, it marks a major commitment to doing business with purpose. For Steves&Co., this milestone is the continuation of a journey built on values of responsibility, impact, and integrity. The Maltese-born brand experience agency has officially become Malta’s first Certified B Corporation™, joining a global community of over 9,000 companies, from Patagonia to Aesop, that balance profit with purpose.
For these businesses, becoming a B Corp™ is no small feat. The process involves a deep dive into how a company operates, how it treats its team, works with clients, impacts its community and manages resources. Every aspect is measured, verified and scored, a transparent, rigorous assessment that only a fraction of businesses worldwide achieve.
For Founder and CEO Steve Ciantar-Barbara, this milestone represents the natural next step in Steves&Co.’s evolution. “This certification reflects what we’ve believed all along, that creativity and strategy have the power to do good,” he says. “It’s about aligning how we grow as a business with the kind of positive impact we want to create.”
Steves&Co. is helping redefine what success looks like in the local creative industry, proving that strategic growth and responsible business can go hand in hand.
Steves&Co. has long stood for brands built with intent. Across industries – from Hospitality and Food & Beverage to Finance and Consumer Goods – the agency has shaped identities, campaigns, and experiences that don’t just look great, but mean something. Their philosophy, Impact with Intent, has guided everything from luxury rebrands to global marketing systems.
“Certification isn’t about being perfect,” says Emily Micallef, Head of Marketing & Strategy. “It’s about progress; about making sure every decision, from how we run our business to how we build brands for clients, contributes positively to people and the communities we’re part of.”
As it nears its 20th anniversary, Steves&Co. continues to expand internationally, partnering with clients that share its commitment to purposeful growth. Because in an industry built on creativity, Steves&Co. is showing that what truly sets a brand apart isn’t just what it makes, it’s what it stands for.
