Current developments

Corporate Purpose Project is a center for regenerative economic development with three areas of focus:

  1. We publish research about addressing systemic issues related to the corporate economy.

  2. We develop capacities for organizations and communities to face these systemic issues.

  3. We prototype open source and pro-social innovations that face these systemic issues.

CURRENT RESEARCH

We’ve published a sector study about the commercialization of psychedelic medicines

Today, a mass social experiment is underway at the intersections of psychedelics with corporate capitalism, institutionalized healthcare, disruptive technologies, and popular culture.

Our sector study evaluates these developments and challenges whether psychedelic corporations can be responsible stewards of these powerful medicines.
