Chapter Leadership

Tim Lillis

Natalie Walsh

Leslie Forman

In the San Francisco Bay Area, we live at the intersection of powerful forces: stunning nature, an international population, big tech, and extreme inequality. Our region is home to companies that wield great power (often irresponsibly) alongside visionary leaders in social impact, systems change, and climate innovation. 

Our chapter works to connect with communities across design, tech, climate justice and regeneration. We create space for conversations that are overlooked in our techno-optimist ecosystem, exploring how creatives can use their influence to drive real climate progress.

Our events range from casual meetups to more produced events. We've hosted climate resilience tours, community garden visits, futurist workshops, lightning talks, and more. We collaborate with community members and local organizations to bring ideas to life. You can check out our past events on Luma, and follow us there. 

Interested in hosting an event with us? Let’s connect and if it’s a good fit for the community, we’d love to work together to make it happen.
