Why they're here

““At a time when the world feels increasingly disconnected from nature and each other, this gathering in Iceland offers a rare opportunity to pause, reflect, and realign our creativity with purpose. The eclipse reminds us that even the most fleeting moments can illuminate lasting transformation. I’m honored to join this global cohort of creators and thinkers to explore ideas grounded in place, guided by nature, and driven by a shared vision for a more intentional future.” — Daniel Blackman, Founder of Renaissance94 and Former U.S. EPA Regional Administrator”
