Heritage, entrepreneurship, and regeneration take center stage in this compelling episode with Manvendra Singh Shekhawat, entrepreneur, conservationist, and founder of Dhun, a 500‑acre regenerative and self‑sustaining community near Jaipur.
Manvendra explains why cultural capital is one of the most undervalued engines of growth and how it can reshape communities, strengthen local economies, and redefine opportunity. He shares how his family legacy shaped his view of capital, why cultural IP can outperform traditional business models, and how regenerative design can create deeper and longer‑lasting impact than philanthropy alone.
From Suryagarh to the visionary Dhun Project, this conversation shows how heritage, sustainability, and creativity can drive meaningful systemic change.
