A 90-minute EURAM 2026 symposium where entrepreneurs, researchers and practitioners sit at the same table — and turn the conversation into shared, actionable research.
Purpose-driven and regenerative business is everywhere right now: keynotes, frameworks, LinkedIn. But between what gets written and what actually happens inside companies and communities there is still a real gap.
Things move when everyone sits at the same table. The entrepreneurs who build, the scholars who theorise, the practitioners who live it every day. This symposium is that table.
This symposium is built on that conviction.
We open with a roundtable with two founders — Michele Zavoli (Travelware) and Jon Mikkel — followed by a moderated Q&A with the team and the audience. Then we move into hands-on group work, where participants co-draft real paper ideas supported by an AI tool that captures and analyses the discussion live.
🎯 The goal
In small groups, collaboratively draft a potential research paper: theoretical framework and lenses, research design & methodology, a community or Indigenous people to support, research question(s), and expected results and contributions.
