Democratizing Innovation Institute

Making it normal to confront broken systems with experiments of your own

Unlocking the potential of local innovators to radically democratize climate solutions.

Why? the fight for planet

At DI², we believe the fight for the planet is fundamentally about empowering those closest to the environmental challenges. By educating, connecting, and supporting local entrepreneurs, we harness grassroots innovation to develop sustainable solutions that are culturally relevant and adaptable globally. Our strategic approach transforms local insights into global climate resilience, driving forward a movement where each innovation not only combats specific issues but also contributes to a broader network of sustainable change.

Mission

The Democratizing Innovation Institute (DI) enables people across the globe to launch experiments on the local level and from within organizations – so they can tackle the entrenched problems and broken systems they face on a daily basis.
