In his 2015 paper for the Capital Institute, Regenerative Capitalism, John Fullerton writes, “a multitude of innovators and entrepreneurs around the world are experimenting with practical ways to reimagine capitalism so that it works for all levels of society, as well as for the planet. In our terms, their common goal is to create a self-organizing, naturally self-maintaining, highly adaptive regenerative form of capitalism that produces lasting social and economic vitality for global civilization as a whole.”

In a more recent paper, Finance for a Regenerative World, Fullerton asserts that “we can no longer accept (the) status quo, no matter the political difficulties and consequences. We must confront conventional wisdom head on when it is clearly wrong and dangerous. Our priority must be to get clear on root causes, rather than reacting to symptoms. Only then can genuine remedies for lasting systemic change be found.”

In this virtual fireside chat, John Fullerton discusses regenerative economics and finance with Impact Entrepreneur’s Laurie Lane-Zucker.
