Speaking at

Closing Fireside Chat | Love as a Bridge between East and West

4月19日, 上午11:30 - 下午1:00 (GMT+8:00)
Town Hall

Having explored the civilisational depth and practical pathways of a Well-being Economy, we arrive at the confluence of our journey. In an era defined by geopolitical fragmentation and compounding challenges, no single civilisation or economy can thrive in isolation. The traditional logic of 'zero-sum games' has reached its limit, depleting our natural resources while fracturing the essential connections of human civilisation. We face an inescapable truth: humanity is not a collection of separate islands, but a deeply coupled and singular living community with a shared destiny. This closing dialogue seeks to reshape the fundamental consensus across Eastern and Western boundaries. Systemic challenges demand a civilisational awakening. To transcend barriers and divisions, we must move beyond short-term calculations, establishing 'Love as Infrastructure'—the ultimate foundation for global governance and transnational collaboration. By gathering leading thinkers and practitioners, we explore how to seamlessly align China’s experience as a 'Regenerative Laboratory' with the collective aspirations of humanity. This is more than a search for cross-sector solutions; it is a collective effort to author the next chapter of human civilisation—returning capital to the service of life and ensuring 'Love' becomes the very fabric of our institutional and economic systems.
