Our Foundation
Our name is of course an homage to Leonardo Da Vinci, which signals our proclivity toward innovation, problem solving, and creativity. Did you know he was the engineer who conceptually invented concentrated solar power?
Our tagline is our massive transformative purpose; Building Bioregional Resilience. This encapsulates our dedication to leaving a legacy of environments that are interconnected, self-sustaining, and vibrant.
Our logo includes a fig, symbolizing interconnectedness and the origin of life itself. This is indeed an extraordinarily fertile time in human existence, when the seeds of revolutionary improvements are germinating; with pure intention and focus, they will bloom. The spiritual symbology highlights abundance in wisdom and success.
Our culture is inspired by the concept of generativity; a principle that motivates us to empower others to create, generate, and produce what is meaningful to them. We believe in the potential of every individual and community to contribute to a thriving ecosystem. This belief guides us to promote flourishing in eight critical areas: intellectual, economic, environmental, mental, physical, spiritual, social, and emotional. Through our projects, we strive to create opportunities for all to thrive together, embodying our philosophy that flourishing is a collective journey.
