Hello, GroundInn Community!

We’ve got some amazing partnerships to shout out, events that left us inspired, and new projects to unveil. So, buckle up—let’s dive in!
🌟 Community Spotlight: House of Beautiful Business
As proud members of the House of Beautiful Business (HoBB) community for the past two years, we’re continually inspired by their dedication to creating a genuine, life-centered economy.
HoBB isn’t just about “community” in name—it’s about real connection, bold ideas, and the freedom to explore unconventional ways to shape a better future. Through both virtual and in-person events, they’ve built a truly transformative network of over 50,000 leaders, creatives, and changemakers from more than 40 countries.
Recently, they launched an exciting new membership model, opening their doors even wider for anyone interested in building a purposeful and sustainable future.

Gina challenges the usual “content overload” approach, showing instead how a strong community with true member connection can grow sustainably and profitably.

In our conversation, Igor shared insights on the latest tech tools that can supercharge community experiences, and why building with the right tech from the ground up makes all the difference.
