Think of GBAS MEXICO as a summit like no other. We will offer an alternative conference platform with different formats, activities, and venues. A chance to come together with people from a variety of disciplines – businesses and nonprofits, anthropologists, designers, engineers, and practitioners, taking the time to help one another by presenting and developing innovative approaches, leading or participating in workshops and activities, and ultimately find better ways of thinking about the future of business realities.
Mexico is known for its vibrant and innovative culture. It’s an internationally renowned center for the fusion of modern and ancient expressions of innovation, making it the perfect location for an open conversation about the future of Business Anthropology.
If you want to be a part of cutting-edge business practices, we invite you to submit your proposals for our upcoming 2023 summit! There are plenty of opportunities to showcase new thinking and make connections.
The enormous cultural diversity that characterizes Mexico sets up the perfect place to represent Latin América (LATAM).
To design the GBAS identity, we were inspired by Mayan textiles, which reflect their cosmovision of the universe, as a dynamic fabric of ever-changing living energies, unfolding, expanding, and contracting.
This vision awakens our awareness that our universe is a living conscious entity, a holistic unified continuum of creative spiritual powers manifesting as a vast ocean of amazing life expressions and unfolding realities.
We also use a bright colourful palette to depict the diverse culture and practices that characterise Mexican people’s joy and kindness.
Each Axis of the Summit is represented by a spiral shape pattern very common in the architecture of prehispanic temples:
Awareness= Aqua turquoise
Connections = Pink Magenta
Uncertainty= Purple
The small accent point encountering the spirals paths, depict the individual humankind which is yet to learn and master: awareness of the environment, connection with all living things, and being ready to embrace uncertainty for the future.
We hope these concepts resonate with you
We would be delighted to see you at our Summit.
Anyone interested in business and anthropology can attend the summit. This is an in-person event, if you can’t come to Mexico City, some sessions will be webcasted onlive and others recorded and shared after. Keep tuned in our social networks for more information.
The Global Business Anthropology Summit is a space where practitioners from an array of professional environments across a global network gather to discuss how anthropology and business are remodeling organizations and humankind. The aim of this network is to continue to draw out and learn from the experiences of these practitioners, exposing new ways and conditions for collaborating with different institutions, organizations, companies, consumers and society using anthropology in work.
