A moment of unexpected clarity.

Inner transformation is the foundation for outer impact. We explore how to live a purposeful life and reach one’s full potential. By leading our lives in alignment with our values and best selves, we can change the world. Topics range from mindset and longevity to conscious leadership.
We live within outdated systems, structures that once served our parents and grandparents but no longer meet the needs of our time. Systems misaligned with human and planetary flourishing. We explore what it takes to reimagine living, learning, and being for a thriving future.
Exponential technologies are reshaping our world. We are entering a fundamentally new world, one that is shifting faster than most of us realise. We seek to understand how to design that future for positive impact.
Capital is a powerful lever for change. To build a thriving future, our financial and incentive systems must be reimagined. We explore how capital, across startups, family offices, and institutions, can be directed toward long-term prosperity for people and planet.
After a soft launch at Institut Le Rosey in March 2021, followed by a virtual session in Harvard 's 360° classroom with Professor Snook on Authentic Leadership, we officially kicked off with our first Learning Experience featuring Paul Polman in April 2022. Since then, we’ve hosted over 100 Learning Experiences, from breathwork sessions to our annual gathering during the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting in Davos, Switzerland. Some of the remarkable individuals we have worked with include André Hoffmann, Ariel Ekblaw, Sir David King, Christian Busch, Daniel Vallverdu, Harry Moseley, Mohamed Massoquoi, Paul Polman, Rana el Kalioubi, Professor Scott. A. Snook, Stanislas Wawrinka, Professor Stuart Russel, and many others.
DIONZ Catalyst Circles take place nearly monthly and are guided by a pioneering voice at the forefront of their field. The speakers are chosen not only for their depth of insight and meaningful contributions to the world, but for their human dept and alignment with the DIONZ values. Each gathering is uniquely shaped for the members and guests present.
The first Learning Experience took place in March 2022 with Paul Polmann on How to Create a Net Positive World.
Highlights from previous DIONZ Catalyst Circles
DIONZ regularly hosts ad hoc in-person gatherings, co-created with one of our members. These intimate experiences follow the same ethos: no monologues, no panels, no slides. They are designed for meaningful connection, shared learning, and real-time growth among peers.
Highlights from previous DIONZ Members' Ateliers
Each year during the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, DIONZ hosts a curated, invite-only gathering that offers a rare moment of stillness amidst the intensity of WEF week.
During Art Basel VIP Preview in Switzerland, DIONZ hosts a curated, invite-only experience dedicated to the theme of the Responsible Cultural Citizen. The program is designed not just to observe art, but to consider our role in shaping cultural ecosystems with integrity, purpose, and curiosity.
We don't believe in competition. We believe in co-creation.
The world has no shortage of complex challenges. Solving them will take all of us, rolling up our sleeves, sharing our knowledge, and bringing our ecosystems closer together. At DIONZ, we’re committed to amplifying those already doing exceptional work. We proudly collaborate with a select group of partner summits: these are gatherings we consider best-in-class. These partnerships are rooted in shared purpose, mutual respect for each other’s work, and a spirit of co-creation.
Past collaborators: Building Bridges, Intelligent Change Summit, Katapult Future Fest, and Terras Tuscany.
