E HŌ MAI 🌺
(na Edith Kanakaʻole)

E hō mai ka ʻike mai luna mai ē
O nā mea huna noʻeau o nā mele ē
E hō mai, e hō mai, e hō mai ē (x3)
Grant us knowledge, Grant us strength
Grant us intelligence, Grant us understanding
Grant us insight, Grant us power ✨

28 global leaders embarked on a six-month journey focused on exploring how ancestral knowledge, technology, and entrepreneurship intersect to shape a regenerative future.

Curious about Breakout Builders ⚙️? Join us and experience how Pittsburgh’s industrial legacy has evolved into the next generation of innovation.

From Hazelwood Green’s transformation of a former steel mill into a hub for advanced manufacturing and community-rooted development, to The Tech Forge—a 64,000-square-foot tech-flex facility in Lawrenceville’s “Robotics Row” that’s home to Innovation Works’ Robotics Factory accelerator and part of a robotics ecosystem that has attracted $3.4B in investment since 2012—we’ll be exploring the people, places, and ideas driving Pittsburgh’s innovation economy.

September 9–12 |📍Pittsburgh.

In June, we hosted a Social Battery Dinner in Atlanta with @goodienation during their Goodie FC programming which activated around the various World Cup host cities. Our event featured a curated table sponsored by @divi.fund and @breakoutfoundation.

No stage, no pitch. Just the kind of room where a REAL-ationship is nurtured and social batteries are filled. More than a dozen creators, builders, community leaders, and educators filled the table as we shared in conversation and connection. After dinner, the room swelled as live music and more energy filled the room. THIS was definitely one dinner for the books!

If you’d want to bring this to your city or organization, email team@nfnte.com. What’s missing from the way your community currently gets people in a room together? taken in Atlanta, Georgia by @breakout

What does it take to build a regenerative future?

For 28 leaders from around the world, it starts by learning from and exchanging with communities that have been stewarding land, culture, and relationships for generations.

Day 2 of the Eahou Global Cohort brought participants to Waiʻanae, where they explored how ancestral knowledge, entrepreneurship, and innovation intersect in practice.

The journey began at Ka Waihona o Ka Naʻauao Public Charter School @kawaihonapcs , continued through the ʻike and stewardship practices of @kaala_farm , and explored youth leadership and social enterprise at @maoorganicfarms . Participants then experienced an unforgettable waʻa journey with @leewardkaicc , learning firsthand about leadership, teamwork, navigation, and connection to place. The day concluded at @nativebookshi in Honolulu’s Chinatown, a hub for Indigenous storytelling.

These experiences are at the heart of Eahou: connecting global changemakers with communities whose wisdom, practices, and leadership offer powerful lessons for the future we are working to build.
