✨ Switzerland ✨ ...is made up of 26 regions with their own constitutions, legislative bodies, governments and judicial systems? For the past 700 years, the Swiss built cooperatives for anything from food and housing, to banks, media and fashion. As a result of their long history of egalitarianism and cooperative governance - most decision making and ~80% of public services are managed at the regional and municipal levels. They also vote on national issues ~4 times a year, and anyone can propose change to constitution. Finally, 75% of the Swiss regularly enjoy outdoor physical activities while strong social safety nets and affordable housing policies allow the "Swiss poor" to live well too. Tl;dr - Well functioning democracy - Culture of cooperatives & decentralization - Emphasis on wellbeing

✨ Zuzalu ✨ Zuzalu started as a 3 month residency in Montenegro. They rented a whole resort where 200+ people could stay, then organized a shitload of events - from conferences to infinite meetups. Topics included: - Crypto - AI - Longevity - Network states Let‘s just say that bringing people from across these different fields, resulted in a lot of very interesting encounters as well as projects. Since then, they did dozens of events around the world and built a whole suite of tools for their community, events and discussions. You could call Zuzalu a movement or a network state, but it kind of refuses to be boxed in. In short, I‘d say Zuzalu is about aggregating the brightest minds to bring together the frontiers of tech, push the boundaries and build cool shit.
