MAINSTAGE SESSION: PROFIT WITHOUT LOSS

Probing the fault lines of institutional collapse and materialism, we explore how transformations of our business ecosystems can take shape. What would an investment strategy look like that acknowledges racial and social bias? How can we reassess the definition of influence and success? How could these shifts contribute to a more inclusive and equitable landscape?

12:00 – 1:30 pm pdt
Affinity Groups Luncheon

Affinity Groups are an opportunity for Summit guests to meet and engage on a theme of shared-interest. Facilitators will start the conversation, ask each member of the table to introduce themselves, and invite them to share what aspect of the topic most interests them.

MAINSTAGE SESSION: Spiritual Capitalism

Questioning traditional economic paradigms, it asks, does capitalism today adequately address the challenges of scarcity of resources? Do often-underserved spiritual principles fit, or fail to fit, into current economic narratives? Can the two be combined?
