Settle into Bhutan. Walk the valleys, visit monasteries and for-benefit enterprises, and let the country's rhythms set the tone before the work begins.
The event
A week-long convening at the frontier of a new economic story.
This page is an early preview — details are still taking shape and will be confirmed over the coming months.
In December 2026, a small group of systemic investors, philanthropic and catalytic capital stewards, ecosystem architects, Bhutanese government leaders, entrepreneurs, and institutional partners will gather in Bhutan at a remarkable moment: the birth of Gelephu Mindfulness City and a national commitment to an economy organised around wellbeing.
Growing a Mindful Economy is not a conference. It is a working week — part immersion, part laboratory, part celebration — where the people shaping capital, policy, and enterprise sit alongside the people shaping a country's future, and build something together that neither could build alone.
Three movements, from arrival to celebration. Placeholder schedule — timings and locations to be confirmed.
