It recognises the need for a built environment that isn’t merely reducing its negative impacts, but has positive impacts for today and the long term.

Getting there
About the venue
Once home to the famous London bottling brand, J. Mills & Sons, The Bottle Factory in Peckham has seen multiple changes of use since it was built in 1895, and has been given a new lease of life by Fabrix as a focus for creative industries and events.
Celebrating the launch of the RAI
As futurist and writer Ed Gillespie has said, “If you want to subvert the dominant paradigm, you need to have more fun than they are … and let them know while you’re doing it" - which roughly translates as ‘throw a better party’!
Can you make the wildest, most regenerative hat?
Guests to the launch party are also invited to take part in a special hat design competition. Judged by Brian Eno and Michael Pawlyn, the maker of the wildest, most regenerative hat will win a bottle of champagne – and the admiration of our peers. Looking for inspiration? Take a look at these ideas!
More to come
We'll also be sharing a special opportunity for Index participants to attend a 'deep dive' into regenerative leadership at a residential weekend we're offering with the renowned Schumacher College. Get your tickets to the party to find out more!
