Groups and networks gathering: Engaging with the businesses of your place (Past)
Part of a series of gatherings for place-based groups and networks working with Doughnut Economics
Please Note: This event has now finished and can no longer be joined.
We're in the final stages of creating a tool that applies the ideas of Doughnut Economics to business, focused on transforming the deep design of businesses in order to enable the bold actions required of business to help humanity move towards the Doughnut. Here’s a short summary of how we’re approaching the idea of enterprise design.
And with the creation of this tool, we're now keen to explore the role that DEAL groups and networks (self-organising, joinable groups applying the ideas of Doughnut Economics in their place) will play in the journey of engaging businesses around the world, such as convening and running workshops for groups of businesses of your place, and being able to charge for it, but not providing advice.
In this gathering Erinch Sahan, DEAL’s Business and Enterprise Lead, will provide an update on our plans and will invite you to think about how this could work in your context.
The gathering is for anyone already part of a group or network or anyone looking to create or join a group or network to apply the ideas of Doughnut Economics in their place. If you would like to join, please complete this registration form and we'll send you the zoom details.
Note that this event is repeated for both Asia and Americas time zones to enable people from across the world to participate. For details of all events in the series of gatherings, visit the events page.

I am a purpose-driven and strategic movement maker, presenter and public speaker with a hands-on approach to production. Drawing from my 8+ years of international experience in community building, storytelling, and event & content production, I thrive on connecting people and driving positive change. With a background in communication science, international relations, yoga, mindfulness, permaculture design and regenerative leadership, my mission is to rekindle the connection between people and nature. In 2019 I co-created the Amsterdam Doughnut Coalition, a grassroots movement consisting of more than 1000 people in Amsterdam who are actively applying the principles of the doughnut economy. The impact of this initiative resonated globally, leading me to speak at numerous influential conferences, ranging from Berlin to Tokyo. My insights of the doughnut economy were featured in interviews with TIME Magazine and I had the privilege to deliver a TEDx talk about a regenerative future. Finally, I founded an international community, encompassing 30+ cities worldwide, to facilitate knowledge sharing and collaboration in driving the adoption of the doughnut economy. Let's connect and create a regenerative future together! Watch and read about my work in the following media: TEDx talk TIME Magazine SKY NEWS YES Magazine De Standaard La Liberation
