Meet the panelists:
❇️ Jason Knoll, Savory Institute — 21M hectares, holistic management, 6 continents.
❇️ Julia Sunderland, Rootstock — built local food systems after leading global teams at Google.
❇️ Aadith Moorthy, Boomitra — soil carbon marketplace, 9 countries, TIME 100 Next 2024.
Most innovation stays in its lane. Ag talks to ag. Finance talks to finance. The problems that live between sectors mostly go unaddressed.
Tech Mesh is built around that gap.
📢 We're launching a new quarterly series called Tech Mesh.
The idea is to put technology in conversation with a different sector each time and see what becomes visible when you look at the connections rather than the parts.
First edition is next Wednesday, alongside #SFClimateWeek.

#RegenTech
We're featuring them as an Initiative of Regen Tech because they raise a question worth sitting with: what if the building was a participant in its ecosystem rather than a sealed object inside one?
They build living walls, facades & rooftop gardens into commercial structures, then monitor them. Air quality, moisture, thermal load, biological change over time. The feedback loop matters as much as the plants.
Buildings are designed to keep biology out. Sealed, climate-controlled, inert.
Junglefy's whole premise is that this is a design choice, not a given.
Featuring Jason Knoll, CEO of Savory Institute, plus additional guests at the intersection of #AgTech and #RegenerativeFinance.
Free, virtual, one hour. Wednesday April 22, 2–3pm PDT.

"Maybe the way we approach problems is part of the problem." - Bayo Akomolafe
Agriculture, technology, and finance each have their own answer to the climate crisis. They rarely have to reconcile them.
April 22, #SFClimateWeek, we're asking what the view looks like from the overlap.
The Playshop reminded us that technology isn’t inherently good or bad. It reflects the values encoded in it, and the voices shaping it.

These patterns echo living systems logic. RTP’s whitepaper maps living systems principles to technology: www.regentech.co/regenerative...
🧭 Life metrics (ecological, social, bioregional health)
🫱🏽🫲🏼 Commons, cooperation, shared stewardship
🗺️ Scale that adapts to place
🦉 More-than-human design
🪡 Long-view progress (repair, wellbeing)
🔓 Interoperability & open standards
Across breakout rooms ( #RegenerativeAI, #sensing & #IoT, #Commons & #Cooperatives, #IndigeneityInTech, #DeveloperTools, #DecentralizedTech), the community got to work. What emerged:
Participants worked with a shared starting point: tech is packed with business, finance, and measurement models that prioritize profit for the few at the cost of the whole.
The question to play with was: which defaults are obsolete, and what patterns are ready to be transformed?
If technology is shaping society, then how we gather to shape technology matters.
Recently, we hosted a Regenerative Tech Mixer & Playshop, an imaginarium for collective curiosity and an alternative to the standard workshop. 🫧
We’re always looking for more examples.

We already see glimpses of that in RTP’s directory: Olio, Empower.eco, LiquiDonate.
Different approaches. Same broader instinct: keep value in circulation, reduce waste, and build systems that participate in life rather than drain it.
🪴That shift begins in the soil: the values, incentives, ownership models, and power structures beneath the surface of any tool.
Change the soil, and different things can grow.
The piece looks to living systems for a clue. In nature, decay is part of renewal. What falls apart does not disappear. It becomes soil.
That’s the invitation here too: to ask how the outcomes of extractive technology can be turned into conditions for a regenerative future.
💩 A month ago at State of the State, we touched on "enshittification" as one sign that tech has drifted far from what people actually need.
Our latest blog stays with the harder question: when systems break down, what can that breakdown teach us?

Tomorrow we’re hosting a Regenerative Tech Mixer & Playshop 🕹️ and it’s exactly what it sounds like: a playful, collaborative space to co-create and reimagine technology in service to life.
Join us on Zoom: luma.com/d45iohuv
#RegenTech
Imagination is where futures start becoming legible.
🕹️ If you want to work with these ideas in community, join us for the Regenerative Tech Mixer & Playshop on March 4th — a 90-minute interactive session to explore these patterns together.

🪴 technology that serves people and living systems
🪴 machine intelligence learning alongside life’s wisdom
🪴 consent & reciprocity as design inputs
🪴 distributed ownership and coordinated abundance
🪴 the internet as a global commons
🪴 systems designed in relationship with people and place
We offered an invitation to compost those choices.
To take what has been built around exploitation, endless optimization, and market-first logic, and begin turning it into a different kind of soil.
In that soil, the contours of another future come into view:
The extractive direction of technology has been shaped by choices.
Choices about values. Choices about incentives. Choices about governance. Choices about what gets normalized as “just how it works.”
🧐 What might we imagine?
At our last State of the State gathering, we closed with a simple imagining practice: slowing down long enough to picture a different technological future.
That definition asks us to treat “externalities” as central design inputs: what a system asks from people, what it rewards, what it makes easier to ignore, and what it makes possible to repair.

Regenerative technology is tech that serves life: health and living systems, relationships of justice and reciprocity, and care for earth and community.
