Dear friends, artists & all agents of positive change,

WHAT IF there were a world-wide collaborative forum to design the new
paradigm of sustainable development across all sectors of society?

What if you could have a concrete influence on this new system?

A strong network of collaboration creates stable growth.

The Global Summit™ (TGS) is the catalyst for this collaboration.
