Act local, grow glocal

We build the future sustainable economy

The manifest

Our actual economy suffers from several structural inefficiencies ranging from regional imbalance to lack of transparency and going through waste of resources.

The transition of our economy from a monolithic model to a resource centric model is the only solution to tackle humanity future challenges. We fundamentally believe that without a global rethinking, our actual model will fail in providing a present and future economic prosperity.

Reconnecting wealth to the local production

The Local Impact Monetary Ecosystem (“LIME”) complements our actual monetary system by implementing, using blockchain technology, an ecosystem of regional currencies that favours local sustainable behaviour.

The originality of LIME resides in combining the creation of an economic ecosystem through regional currencies and the integration of a local impact monetary policy. Our goals are:

  • Decreasing regional imbalances by supporting a local sustainable economy
  • Assessing resources at local level and global level and de facto promoting the development of regional economy
  • Improving regional business transparency.

We adhere to the Sustainable Development Goals.
