Intuitively, it feels like the concept of regeneration is gaining traction. More people are talking about it (such as presentations at the recent Natural Products Expo); more projects invoking it; more companies are adopting it; interest from donors and investors seems higher.
This is a good thing. Helping to build out the network supporting regeneration is a crucial component of building a successful movement.
Getting together with other people who see the potential of a regenerative future is a good way to accelerate our progress. Regen18, to be held in San Francisco May 1-4 in the heart of the fabled Mission District, is a special opportunity — perhaps even what we might call a nucleator or, borrowing Buckminister Fuller’s term, a trimtab. The event can and should be a catalytic, field-building event. (Note: RASA is a network partner.)
Regen18 has some truly unique things going for it, including:
- being in the Bay Area where, let’s face it, a lot of crazy ideas blow up to become globe-straddling realities,
- an organizing team with a history of mainstreaming big concepts,
- a cross-cutting set of tracks (food & agriculture, urban, innovative finance, and networks) spanning the gamut of what makes a “Regenerative Society”
- a powerful group of presenters,
- plus, a self-organized “Open Space” day (May 4) for us to work together to figure out how to seriously move the needle for people and planet.
