S2-E2. Community Building - A step towards sustainable & profitable business

Be Empactful

Welcome to Season 2 of the Be Empactful Podcast.

This is Episode 2 of this season where we are exploring how to build Sustainable Businesses.

This episode will be exploring the role of communities in building sustainable businesses.

Sustainable Communities are a powerful tool in redefining societies and businesses. The power of compounded thought coming together for a fixed purpose has often been the catalyst of change across the world and throughout history.

In modern times, we first take a look at Auroville, in Puducherry, India, which is a community-built, community-driven, and community-managed society welcoming people from all over who are committed to their way of living and growing. This is a thriving society that is growing by the day. Check out more at https://www.auroville.org

A simple vision to build a business that focuses on engaging and developing local communities while also building a business that uses the environment around – that is truly disruptive. And that is what Nirvana did to put Kamshet, a local hillside hamlet, on the global paragliding map. Taking it further and to give their clients a wholesome experience, Native Place was born – a resort that is in harmony with the surroundings and engages the local communities for staff, materials, etc. Check out more at https://www.flynirvana.com/ & http://nativeplace.com/

When minds with different ideas and experiences but united in a common purpose come together, what is created is a unique enterprise that builds successful and truly sustainable business for themselves, the stakeholders, the community, and the platform at large. Dandelion Energy, birthed from Google’s Moonshot Factory, has investors, advisory, and management from multiple industry backgrounds to provide urban heating and cooling services using geothermal energy.

And finally, when the purpose is to create a community that helps other product companies make Environment-friendly choices, Be Earthly saw this purpose evolve into a business model that is successfully supporting and growing Earth-friendly product companies to reach out to their markets.
