For me, to be able to write usually are in those moments that I can’t prevent and there is nothing that I could do but write… It is swinging moods, ups and downs, questions and the search for those anwers in my heart. .. And … thats life and it offers those times whether you like it or not. But then, there are moments… breaths in life, from life … that serenity surrounds you. There is nothing but peace and space within you, lightness takes you ower and the words start flowing from you… Without thought they just find life, and those times… I am ultimetly grateful. Knowing that u posses love is something but making it tangible so peope can touch and feel is priceless….so grateful that i am me!
The House of Beautiful Business is Coming to Istanbul!

The House of Beautiful Business is Coming to Istanbul!

A meaningful cycle is completing, along the shores of the Bosphorus.

Back in 2016, the foundations of my life began to shift. It was a time when I made space for my inner voice and stepped courageously into the unknown. In 2017, as a first-year social entrepreneur building Joint Idea in Arnavutköy, Markus lifted his eyes from his screen and said, “Tim Leberecht, the founder of the House of Beautiful Business, is inviting us to their first gathering in Barcelona. What do you think?”

Before I even grasped the full details, my body had already said yes. It was an inner pull, a calling I answered instinctively.

As people born into a world shaped by corporate structures, we launched Joint Idea with the hope of transforming the traditional perception of work into something more beautiful, inclusive, and whole — into a vision of “the work of our lives.” The idea that there were others around the world on a similar quest for meaning, and that we could collaborate with them, deeply excited me.

In March 2017, together with five fellow travelers from the Love Mafia, we helped plant the first seeds of this calling. Since then, we’ve taken part in nearly every gathering of the House of Beautiful Business — growing, deepening, and transforming together.

And now, a dream I’ve held close to my heart is coming true.

The House of Beautiful Business is coming to Istanbul.

Following the gatherings in Berlin, New York, and Tangier, the final stop of the PolyOpportunity journey will take place at DotsHub on June 19–20. This two-day “Istanbul Bootcamp” is more than just an event — it’s an invitation to look at work, ourselves, and our shared existence with deeper awareness.

In this unique gathering, 50 bold thinkers and doers from diverse disciplines will come together to shape both personal roadmaps and a collective vision for the future.

Expect live music, soul-nourishing experiences, deep conversations along the Bosphorus, inspiring speakers, and — most beautifully — a sense of coming home, in Istanbul.

I’m beyond excited to reunite with fellow ambassadors of a more beautiful, more-than-human future — those who are reimagining what business, and life, can truly be.

As natural contributors and collaborators to this amazing gathering, we’re pleased to offer a 25% discount code to our immediate eco system and collaborators. If you’re interested in attending, please reach out to me personally to receive your discount code. Looking forward to connecting with you all.

Over the years, we’ve participated in the House of Beautiful Business through these evolving themes:

  • 2017: The first gathering in Barcelona, we focused on reintroducing romance and humanity into the business world. In our session 2Thrive with your tribe’ from our Love Mafia Ceren Çerçiler, Leszek Możdżer, Semih Yalman, Özgür Polat, Ayşe Öztuna, Rachel Anne Sibley and Ecmel Ayral joined us in our conversation. Reflecting on the beginning of our journey, it’s still deeply moving to hear what we all had to say. Watch that first circle from 2017 here:
  • 2018: The Art in AI – In this first House in Lisbon, Markus and I led a session exploring the wisdom of the world’s oldest game “tavla” (backgammon) and how it invites us to connect with one another through its ancient insights.
  • 2019: The Battle for Beautiful Business – We attended and deepened our perception and understanding of this growing tribe. We then hosted a Chamber of Beautiful Business in Istanbul. In “The Bridge to Exponential Humanity” Ida Faldbakken, Ray Boyle, Canay Atalay, Mustafa Osman Turan, Ebru Köksal, Shermin Voshmgir, Christopher Guy Neville, Ceren Çerçiler, Gülay Özkan and Music Medicine joined us in exploring our next form of existence.
  • 2020: The Great Wave – House of Beautiful Business gracefully and nimbly adapted its format to the constraints of the pandemic world, and the Great Wave was held online. It provided a much-needed remedy, allowing us to connect with each other and embrace what was unfolding in our humanity. We then hosted a Chamber of Beautiful Business in Istanbul titled “me. we. unity” with Sema Demirkan, Orkun Özocak, Özlem Özülker, Belçim Bilgin, Engin Ayaz, Weynand Kuijpers , Michael Healy from Unit, Richard Hsu, and Michael Sheldrick.
  • 2021: Concrete Love 
  • 2022: Open House 
  • 2023: The_Dream – The first House held in the magical town of Sintra, where graceful hosting and thoughtful curation elevated our experience. We rekindled our relationships and collaborations as we emerged from isolation.
  • 2024: Between the Two of Us
