To be announced
We will set out to answer the following challenges:
What are the waves of change and services likely to revolutionize the banking industry?
What will the transparent and constructive bank of the 21st century look like?
What are the steps needed before banks and financial institutions can re-establish a constructive role in society?
How can we as citizen investors unite and start contribute to a more sustainable and constructive world today?
At Rebuild21 we will showcase companies and organisations that will inspire us to see what finance, banking and investment funds of the 21st century might look like.

Leaderlab is looking for an Intern to help us arrange Rebuild21 - an international conference in Copenhagen.
We are offering a 3-4 months Internship starting March 1st 2012.
As an Intern you will be involved in planning, marketing and running Rebuild21.
We are a small but dynamic organization and can offer a meaningful internship where you can make a real difference.
We expect that you are a good organizer, not afraid of taking action and getting things done. You are probably interested in globalization, sustainability and social innovation.
Through the Internship you will build a network and gain valuable knowledge about Leadership, Innovation, Social Business, Social Entrepreneurship as well as international business, media and politics.
What you study is not so important. The important thing is that you are dedicated, a team player and a great colleague. It will be an advantage - but not a requirement - that you are accustomed to working in Google Docs and in PowerPoint / Keynote.
Send a short motivation and a bit of background/CV to Sofus Midtgaard at: sofus@leaderlab.com - or call +45 30 220 111 if you have questions about the internship. Deadline is February 2nd, 2012.
We are now 7 bill. people on the planet. By 2035 around 70% of the world population will live in cities. The price of energy and food is climbing. We are the most in-dept, medicated and obese generation ever. We are not even close to a realistic solution to tackle climate change. And we are facing a collapse of the world economy. Need more reasons to Rebuild business for the 21st century?
About the Manifesto:
The Rebuild21 Manifesto is the incomplete essence of many people's work during and after the Rebuild21 conference. The Manifesto is humbly edited by Rebuild21 founder Sofus Midtgaard - @sofus. Constructive feedback and suggestions are welcome. Join the discussion
We hope it will inspire a new generation of entrepreneurs and business leaders to rebuild business for the 21st Century. If inspired - join the community or sign up for an invitation to Rebuild21 2012.
