Startup Forest Bath & Connect by Golden Born Society
Startup Forest Bath & Connect by Golden Born Society | Hacıosman Atatürk City Forest
Step away from the screen. Walk into the forest. Reconnect with what matters.
Golden Born Society heads into Hacıosman Atatürk City Forest for a slow, intentional walk through nature. No agenda, no pitch decks, no performance expectations. Just a small group of people from the startup world; founders, investors, developers, mentors, operators, moving through the forest together and actually talking.
The experience is inspired by Shinrin-yoku, the Japanese practice of forest bathing: slowing down, engaging the senses, and letting the nervous system do what it was built to do. Rest.
For minds that are constantly thinking, producing, and carrying responsibility, this is the reset you did not know you needed.
We meet at Beltur at the entrance of Hacıosman Atatürk City Forest at 13:30. The activity runs until 15:30.
What to expect:
Slow-paced forest walk through Hacıosman Atatürk City Forest (2-3 km)
Shinrin-yoku inspired awareness moments along the way
Real conversations in a distraction-free natural setting
Post-walk coffee together
Max 20-30 participants, intentionally kept small for higher quality connection
No performance, no output, no productivity expectations
Getting there: For those coming by public transport, take the metro to Hacıosman station, Beltur is right at the enterance, easy to find. If you are driving, there is an Ispark car park directly at the location.
Environmental Impact, sponsored by Dots.eco: Every participant contributes to a real-world environmental impact from planting trees to protecting wildlife habitats and receives a digital shareable certificate.
Stay Connected with Golden Born Society: Everyone who registers will be kept in the loop about upcoming Golden Born Society gatherings and events.
About Golden Born Society: Golden Born Society was built for people in the startup world; founders, investors, developers, mentors, and everyone within this ecosystem, to have a space beyond work. Not just for networking, but for genuinely connecting, moving, and taking care of themselves. The community brings the startup ecosystem together through action and wellness experiences: runs, forest walks, chill days, and more to come. Because the people who build things also need to breathe, move, and recharge. We are building Golden Born Society together, for positive professional growth, physical wellbeing, mental clarity, and environmental impact.
Coming soon (spoiler): The Golden Born Society app: All events, all community updates, one place.
