The Mendel Circle
OPENING APRIL 2027
The Institute's membership community: a small, serious crowd that meets in person, thinks together between meetings, and gets closer to the work than the public ever will.
What the Circle offers
01
Quarterly gatherings
One major metropolitan city each quarter, in person: a talk, a roundtable, and time with people worth meeting. Cities announced ahead of each quarter.
02
The online community
A private space and networking app: member directory, introductions, and ongoing discussion between gatherings.
03
Live webinars
Regular sessions with invited guests — researchers, journalists, and practitioners. Recorded, with full archive access.
04
The members' briefing
Early access to Institute research and work in progress, before it's public.
05
Roundtable access
Priority invitations to the Institute's small, off-the-record sessions as guest seats open.
06
The founding cohort
Those who join at launch are named founding members of the Circle, with their terms locked as the community grows.
Join the waitlist
If this sounds like your room, join the waitlist. It costs nothing and commits you to nothing — it means you'll hear first, and founding places go to the list before anyone else.
