Re/generatie

What Re/generatie does

Re/generatie (Regeneratie Coöperatie) is a Dutch non-profit cooperative headquartered in Amsterdam that operates a portfolio of programs spanning personal regeneration, organizational consulting, and neighborhood community-building. The cooperative was founded in 2021 and is structured sociocratically, with power and responsibilities distributed across named 'cirkels' (circles) of approximately 11–50 members including coaches, branding professionals, designers, scientists, facilitators, and activists. Its three core product lines are Persoonlijke Regeneratie (individual programs and immersion), Regeneratieve Organisaties (consulting offerings such as 'Regeneratie als Oplossing' and 'Regeneratief Kompas'), and Buurtwerk (neighborhood initiatives including Operation Food Freedom serving 40 households). Distinctive flagship offerings include week-long Regeneration Weeks at Cal Tut Farm in Mieres, Girona (8–17 participants per week at €450–€850 solidarity pricing) and the annual Regeneration Festival at Tolhuistuin in Amsterdam, with a 500+-attendee target for 2025.

The underlying technology stack is minimal: a WordPress website at regeneratie.org with bilingual Dutch/English content management via TranslatePress, supplemented by an affiliation with the Mycelium Netwerk (a decentralized digital directory/widget for cross-organizational visibility created by Cas Hendriks). No proprietary platform, mobile application, or data infrastructure is disclosed. Strategic partnerships include Cal Tut Farm (Catalonia venue), De Warren (Jaarprogramma co-delivery), Patagonia (Herstellers Project supporter), Erasmus+ (youth exchange funding), and various community organizations. Distribution is fully direct — participants register via email or the Hipsy platform for events, and organizational clients are acquired through direct outreach, with community word-of-mouth as the primary demand-generation lever.

The revenue model is multi-stream and intentionally non-extractive: solidarity-priced event participation fees (€100–€300 year program, €450–€850 Reg Weeks, pay-what-you-want Festival), fee-for-service organizational consulting (negotiated per engagement), and bespoke lectures/workshops (1.5–3 hours, individually priced). The customer base is geographically concentrated in the Netherlands with program delivery in Catalonia, and is segmented across individuals, mission-driven mid-market organizations (with Kurve cited as an example client since 2020), neighborhood groups, and youth (ages 18–30 via Erasmus+). The cooperative explicitly does not disclose revenue, funding rounds, or external investment, consistent with its non-profit, member-governed structure.

Comparable on regenerative business culture consulting, policy thought leadership, and Aligned-by-Design frameworks.

Comparable to Re/generatie on regenerative learning content, workshop formats, and ecosystem-oriented education.
• Findhorn Foundation: Scottish intentional community and learning center running residential programs in regenerative living, ecovillage design, and personal transformation. Comparable on immersive residential-regeneration program format and a community-as-living-lab approach, paralleling the Cal Tut Farm model.
• Schumacher College (Dartmouth Trust): UK-based higher-education institution offering short residential programs on ecology, economics, and regenerative living — notably the most direct model for Re/generatie's week-long Regeneration Weeks in Catalonia with both didactic and immersive elements.
• Presencing Institute: Global social venture founded by Otto Scharmer focused on regenerative leadership, Theory U, and 'systems change' coaching for organizations and individuals. Directly comparable to Re/generatie's Regeneratieve Organisaties coaching track and Vincent Deinum's regenerative-coaching practice.

Highly comparable to Re/generatie: comparable mission ('regeneration'), also NL-anchored, and an adjacent ecosystem partner via the Dutch regenerative movement (e.g., Herstellers-style storytelling).

Others

• Sociocracy For All: International nonprofit that provides training, resources, and consultancy on sociocratic governance — the same model Re/generatie uses internally. Not a direct competitor, but a relevant adjacent/inspirational player that Re/generatie draws on for its internal governance demonstrations.

Broad incumbents

• B Lab Global (B Corp): Global nonprofit behind the B Corp certification, referenced as a partner on Re/generatie's Herstellers Project. Functions as a broader incumbent standard-setter for regenerative/mission-driven business — adjacent rather than directly competing with Re/generatie's services.
