Impact Tracks

We’ll be highlighting their success stories as well as their as we feature leading solutions from Africa, South and Central America, Asia, Oceana, and more.

Economic Transformation

Financial Innovation, Regenerative Finance, and New Philanthropy

Family offices, investors, VC’s and philanthropists want to see their funding drive meaningful impact. Regenerative & Transparent forms of funding have emerged that ensure funds are directed into the hands of those who need it.

Business As A Vehicle For Good

With 2% of global profits going to corporate social responsibility (CSR), business has the potential to be one of the greatest levers of change today. We’ll explore how companies everywhere are providing vital products and services for communities in need.

Institutional Change, Civic Innovation, and Social Justice

Local, national, and global institutions are key players in affecting positive change. Many are creating groundbreaking innovations, from new political parties and tools, to new ways to have the voice of the people heard.

Technological Transformation

Web3, AI & Tech For Good

Web3, Blockchain and AI have all advanced rapidly over the past few years, creating great new capabilities for change. We’ll explore how these technologies are impacting the way we work, exchange value, automate for impact and driven financial freedom.

SDGs, Impact Mapping & Impact Measurement

The UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a useful framework for focusing our collective efforts, but they are just one among an emerging set of impact categorizations. We’ll explore how we can move from frameworks to impact measurement & coordination.

Cities, Network States, & Civilization Design

Civilization design is the process of choosing the kind of world we want to build together. Traditional cities face new challenges. From Startup cities to Network state/coordi-nation (a hybrid virtual and place-based country united not by geography but purpose), we’ll explore how we can create more idealistic cities and civilizations.

Social Transformation

Impact-Focused Education

Given the rapid rate of change, our educational institutions are struggling to adapt to the needs of students and communities alike. Beyond skill development and employment prep, can we re-imagine how education can align impact, purpose and values into the very fabric of learning.

Inner Development, Mental Health, and Social Connection

Inner change is as much a part of our path forward as outer change. We’ll explore how we can nourish our mental health, foster social connections, and focus on our own grounding, growth, and development to build a world that works for all.

Storytelling, Media, Games & Art

The stories we tell and the channels we communicate through help define the world we create. We can change that narrative for good by amplifying both unheard voices and those fostering a more kind, healthy and regenerative world.
