Sign the Social Contract
Join the growing tribe of innovators in the global Rainforest. Sign the Social Contract below:
- I am joining a global community of people who share a common faith in the culture of innovation and entrepreneurship. I am open to meeting anyone in this community.
- I understand that I will receive valuable help from others for free or at a very low cost.
- I agree to “pay forward” whatever positive benefits I receive. For every introduction I get, I will provide an introduction to another person. For every hour of advice I receive, I will give an hour of advice to someone else. For every risk someone takes with me, I will take a risk with a different person.
- I will give trust to others before expecting to receive trust in return. I will treat everyone fairly. I will take advantage of no one.
- I will bring people together, as none of us is as smart as all of us.
- I will dream, experiment, iterate, and persist. I understand that mistakes and failure are acceptable ways of testing new ideas.
- I will open myself to learning from others. I will help nurture learning in others.
- Each person is a role model for everyone else. I will live these ideals as a member of the Rainforest community.
