For over 30 years, globalization has been dominated the world. As efficiency of economies of scale grows, so the carrying capacity of ecosystems diminishes. In complete disregard and blindness of the future, food and agriculture corporations are one of the greatest contributors in the global warming trend, destroying forests, soil and abusing ecoservice. Whole communities, cities and natural beauties are disappearing with appalling speed, leaving future generations with degraded environment, polluted water and toxic food.

Local 2 Global is cooperating with the innate call of the system to change its behavior. People from all over the world create community based local products, eco farms and villages, ecosystem restoration and protection projects. It is our decisive step toward nurturing and empowering such initiatives with our wisdom of the systems and networks.

In essence Local 2 Global is a network structure that enables small organisations to connect to networks and enables collaboration to the degree of greater efficiency than that of economies of scale. Its a set of principles, designs and methods for smaller organisations to be proactive in seeking collaboration, creating local marketplaces of services and products of similar nature and connecting them to the services, who take care of logistics, distribution and marketing on the global scale. That creates a clear-cut competitive advantage, while also untapping the power of the growing social movement of sustainability, responsibly grown food and ethical attitude to nature.

Local 2 Global structures empower local producers and services to be more profitable and sustainable, while keeping them local and community-led. It is achieved with both technology, collaboration frameworks and network design. We keep innovating new ways how local companies can be attractive businesses, motivating new generations to move back to the villages, maintaining quality of life and well-being.

Local 2 Global is our last chance to prevent ecological destruction, while fueling new growth for the economy through micro local businesses, restoring local communities and protecting local ecosystems.

If the solution is not beautiful, I know it is wrong.
