About us

We believe in co-creating desirable futures where ideas and innovation drive a regenerative economy that benefits people and the planet.

Our goal is to create the most impactful network of Chief Sustainability Officers dedicated to transforming businesses to serve people, planet and profit.

We specifically speak of multiple futures

— because we believe in a systemic approach that addresses the futures of all fields and sectors — the future of education, of work, of technology, mobility, medicine, agriculture, et al.

Over the past 7+ years, Futur/io has grown a network of impact-driven corporate leaders and influential voices, innovators, futurists and experts in the sustainability sphere.

Together, we are working towards achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals and co-creating the new business paradigm that benefits people, planet and profit.
