#24 - Building a flywheel for the regenerative economy, with Thomas Schindler (Full Episode)

In this episode: We will dive into your biography and sketch some of the defining turning points from your childhood, adolescence, and adulthood that connect to the topic. What comes after the liminal/sense-making web? How do we get our hands dirty in building a good world? I know you are involved in many different projects, please sketch a couple, especially focussing on where you see the levers for systemic change The flywheel Delodi https://motherland.earth https://www.gita.global Initiative for the Regenerative Economy https://regenerativemarktwirtschaft.org https://pirate.partners/ And please also mention how you finance these whole endeavors, and how Delodi plays a crucial role to unlock the financial grease to shuffle money into these projects. Main point being - with our dialogue I want to inspire other entrepreneurs to build a “Full Circle” and an ecosystem for systemic change. I know actually few that are successful in doing that. What are the main things you are wrestling with? What could be a wild card that drastically unlocks more torque on your engine going full circle? Finally, when you dare to take a daringly positive outlook beyond the collective multi-crises we are currently facing, what would the leverages be that made us create a future in peace, ecological health, and abundance with all sentient beings on this beautiful planet? Bio of my guest, Thomas Schindler: A childhood dominated by dinner table conversations around ion channels, power microscopy, nuclear war, and ecosystems collapse left its marks. Instead of becoming a rockstar, which had been the original plan, Thomas became an entrepreneur driven by applying the power of science and technology toward making the planet a good place. This led to a series of for-profit and non-profit organizations, initiatives, and projects toward that objective which can be explored on his website https://thomas.cr
