Welcome to The Nantucket Project We are thrilled to announced that TNP10, our tenth signature annual gathering is happening in September. TNP is where new ideas and movements start. Our members gather for conversations, unique collaborations, and film viewing in a very special island environment that allows people to be fully present to explore and share new ideas. Our gathering started on Nantucket because the remote beautiful island allows you to unplug and participate fully. Our gathering is intimate, happens under a tent with no fancy technology, no long power points, no zooms. Just conversations among a diverse group of members who are leading change. The Nantucket Project is a next generation media company with a mission to create a better world using a unique humanistic research methodology which combines unconventional conversations and collaborations, live gatherings, and films to re-imagine solutions to pressing challenges. Our approach is unique because our path to impact starts with conversation and collaborations as we believe that it is the combination of diverse perspectives, a focus on nuances that make up truth and an optimistic willingness to embrace human imperfection that enables us to find better solutions. Our films enable us to amplify and share these unique conversations, collaborations and gatherings to engage broader audiences which leads to impact. TNP both develops actual solutions to problems in partnership with our members or supports and facilitates solution development. Our work results in more awareness and engagement in civil discourse and civic responsibility, increased involvement in movements for change, and implmentation of policy and legal changes that make a better world.
