IWBI Welcomes New Organizations to Its Membership Program

NEW YORK, December 23, 2020 /3BL Media/ – The International WELL Building Institute (IWBI) is pleased to announce new organizations that have joined the IWBI membership program. The continued growth of the program signifies an increasing global emphasis on improving health and well-being through the spaces where we live, work and play. The most recent members to join this network include real estate developers, design and engineering consulting firms and product manufacturers.

“In the midst of a global pandemic, organizations are stepping up to re-evaluate and improve the way that their workplaces, products, policies and programs impact their employees, customers and communities,” said IWBI president and CEO Rachel Hodgdon. “IWBI members are leading the way by taking action to prioritize our collective health, well-being and safety.”

The continued growth of the IWBI membership program parallels the rapid global uptake of both the WELL Building Standard and the WELL Health-Safety Rating, which now stands at over 1.5 billion square feet of projects across 78 countries. Much of WELL’s success is driven by a global network of WELL APs and registrants, a community now totaling nearly 15,000 people.

There are two tiers of membership and a third designation for companies already enrolled in the WELL Portfolio program. This allows companies to select the best fit for their organizational goals. Member benefits include discounts on the WELL Certification process and WELL AP credentialing program, specialized opportunities to publicize accomplishments, and more touchpoints with IWBI leadership and across the broader community through members-only year-round events and enhanced digital engagement. The program creates pathways for WELL advocates and champions to stay connected, share best practices, explore new shared initiatives and receive greater recognition for these efforts.
