What a year (and then some) it’s been. I know from speaking to so many in our community around the world this past year that we have all struggled. And yet true to the courageous optimism of the SB tribe, we have also been substantially stepping up the pace of innovation and leveraging your brands in new ways in a race to ensure a flourishing future for our children.
This is great news, as the pressure is mounting to respond quickly and boldly to the growing stressors of climate change, biodiversity loss and inequality that are chewing away at the social fabric of our communities and countries. There is no more important time for us all to come back together — to take stock of rapidly moving goal posts and hear how our leaders are gaining ground none-the-less.
Thankfully, as more of us here in the US are getting vaccinated, California is expected to be fully open for business by mid-June and we are excited to welcome you back to our beloved home at Paradise Point in San Diego this October 18-21st where we will share with you and each other what we see of the road ahead and lay groundwork together for the upcoming decade of Regeneration.
As you’ll recall, space on the island is limited and we expect to sell out. Don’t miss this chance to catch up on all that has transpired since we’ve been apart, and prepare with your peers to pick up the pace in the year ahead, as things are definitely speeding up. Take advantage of early bird registration rate now (rate expires on May 5th) and reserve a room on the island to make the most of the experience of being back together.
Can’t wait to see you there!

p.s. We don’t want you to stress about uncertainty, so we’re taking risk off the table. If for some reason conditions change and you are unable, or uncomfortable attending in person with us in October, we’ll refund the difference between in-person and virtual — register today! Know an SB alum we might have lost touch with? We’d be grateful if you’d forward this to them — thank you!
