TTI NYC | Capitalism 2.0: An Intimate Dinner on the Future of Regenerative Capitalism
An intimate, invitation-only dinner bringing together 20 impact investors, philanthropists, and thought leaders to explore how capitalism can be redesigned to serve a regenerative future. Hosted and moderated by Michel Bayan.
Join us on November 16 for an evening of thoughtful conversation, connection, and exceptional food at Market Table in New York City's West Village. We'll gather around a single table in a private dining room for a facilitated discussion, accompanied by a full dinner with beer and wine included.
The question at the center of the table
If the way companies are governed and capitalized today creates an ever-growing incentive for extraction, can we ever build a regenerative economy, or a regenerative society, without first changing how companies are structured?
Beyond B Corps, SPCs, and PBCs, how can for-profit and nonprofit interests align to fund and drive the regenerative innovations of the future, without the fear that, like so many before them, those companies will be corrupted?
For Investors
For investors backing the companies meant to build that future, this question is personal. Imagine watching a company you believed in drift from its mission just as it reaches the scale where it could deliver the impact you hoped to enable. This is all too common an outcome.
As Eric Ries (The Lean Startup, Incorruptible) recently put it, "The bigger the golden goose, the greater the propensity to slaughter." Without the right structure, the more successful a company becomes, the more likely short-term profit maximization is to devour founders' good intentions. This dinner is a step forward in setting a new standard for the companies we invest in.
For Philanthropists
With recent seismic shifts in the giving world, many foundations and donors are asking whether giving can become more empowering. How can funds given today make an impact and also have the chance to make that impact perpetual? How can nonprofits keep pace with the degradation of nature driven by misaligned corporations? Corporate misalignment is a multi-trillion-dollar problem, and philanthropy is fighting it with billions from outside the system.
But what if nonprofits and foundations could make an impact from the inside? Imagine holding regenerative values within the governance structures of tomorrow's biggest companies, sharing in profits honorably earned, and using those returns to fund regenerative work in perpetuity. A few extraordinary examples of this already exist. Let's talk about how to multiply them.
What we'll explore together
Over dinner, we'll discuss the growing wave of experiments in how companies, especially young startups, can be structured, and how their capital stacks can be designed so their incentives push humanity toward a regenerative future rather than away from it. The conversation will focus on two areas:
Governance: how impact charters and rewritten articles of incorporation can protect a company's purpose regardless of who owns or leads it.
The capital stack: how to bring every stakeholder (people, planet, and profit) into the ownership structure, with proportionate power to keep all three in balance no matter how large the company grows or who runs it in the future.
Geoship will share its own model as a working example, including its Perpetual Purpose Trust, its capital stack vision, and the Impact Charter built into its articles of incorporation.
Who's coming
An intimate group of just 20 impact investors, philanthropists, foundation leaders, and legal advisors who believe capitalism can be redesigned to serve human flourishing, and who want to help shape how.
