Welcome to the Columbus Chapter of Conscious Capitalism
Conscious Capitalism Columbus is the local chapter of an international organization dedicated to the elevation of humanity through business. Originally founded following the publication of “Conscious Capitalism: Liberating the Heroic Spirit of Business” conscious capitalism has become an International movement with over 30 chapters in cities and communities around the globe.
We believe that business is good because it creates value, it is ethical because it is based on voluntary exchange, it is noble because it can elevate our existence and it is heroic because it lifts people out of poverty and creates prosperity. Free enterprise capitalism is the most powerful system for social cooperation and human progress ever conceived. It is one of the most compelling ideas we humans have ever had. But we can aspire to even more.

Inaugural Champions
Conscious Capitalism is at its heart about people … entrepreneurs, business leaders, and intrapreneurs who champion a belief that business, when practiced consciously, elevates humanity.
The Columbus Chapter of Conscious Capitalism is deeply grateful for the support and generosity of our Inaugural Champions. It is through their commitment to the guiding principles of Conscious Capitalism – for themselves, their businesses and our community – that helps us fulfill our purpose as a chapter and realize our shared vision of a world where business is, and is recognized as, a force for good in the world.
