“[Earthrise] embodies three key pillars: interdependence, long-term thinking and profound collaboration. All are wrapped in a blanket of empathy and compassion. We cannot continue as a species with a two-dimensional map as our model. Humanity is at a critical point in history.”

" We at Rising Tide Capital, along with our global partners, are seeing unprecedented shifts in our economy that require profound collaboration and action on a local and global level. We believe the 50th anniversary of Earthrise offers us an opportunity to invite leaders at every level to activate their full potential to build inclusive economies that prioritize human and planetary well-being."

EarthRISE50 Founding Circle

membership details
As part of the EarthRISE50 Founding Circle, global influencers and champions of human potential will join us on a transformational journey from “hero to host” of a new future economy. In partnership with a small group of committed Restorative Investors, they will pool social, knowledge and financial resources to model an inclusive future economy from the ground up in the places they care most about, as well as those that need swift attention. EarthRISE50 Founding Circle members will join learning journeys across the US and the world, participate in EarthRISE50 conversations at partner-led events in their locality, gain new skills as Restorative Investors and apply their learning, new networks and financial capital to emergent solutions that hold promise in advancing the EarthRISE50 goals of awakening to our interdependence, profound collaboration, and long-term thinking.
