These are incredible movements that I’ve worked with, or which have influenced my thinking as a social entrepreneur.
Post-Growth Entrepreneurship
Post Growth Entrepreneurship (PGE) reframes business as a form of activism, art, spirituality, and creative expression. This business model embraces flat growth curves and rejects the need for investors, scaling, and exits. PGE questions entrepreneurial “common wisdom” and re-envisions business as a vehicle for pure positive impact. Offers events, research, education and community to (aspiring) post-growth entrepreneurs.
