Erinch Sahan is the Business & Enterprise Lead at Doughnut Economics Action Lab. For over 10 years, he has focused on the transformation of the business world to make it regenerative and distributive by design – exploring governance and ownership models that embed social and ecological priorities.
Doughnut Economics is a compass for human prosperity in the 21st century. It highlights the transformations needed if we are to meet the needs of all people within the means of the living planet. For business, Doughnut Economics means a deep internal reflection on the traits of enterprise design. This talk will give an overview of Doughnut Economics, identify the broader economic transformations needed and identify ways businesses can pursue regenerative and distributive goals through a redesign of their purpose, networks, governance, ownership and finance.
Erinch will be speaking to us virtually, but we will be gathering in-person in downtown Portland, exact location TBD. Light breakfast will be provided.
