The Gathering intends to catalyze a regenerative ecosystem of collaboration and supporting meaningful action for global systems change.


The Gathering is a co-created event merging elements of conferences, trade shows, traditional festivals, and conscious gatherings. It invites impact entrepreneurs, change makers, social entrepreneurs, community builders, investors, systems thinkers, artists, performers, and scientists to come together and create a new model for collaboration and regeneration. Inspired by unconferences, medieval fairs, indigenous tribal gatherings, trade shows, music festivals, conscious festivals, and Burning Man, The Gathering is a community-scale experiment in bottom-up co-creation. Participating organizations co-create the programme, ensuring an immersive and participatory experience.
