The Karman Project

Our mission is clear: to drive the most consequential initiatives now -

Coherent Networks: Change starts with people, and The Karman Project has built a world-leading network of highly diverse and influential leaders from 65 nations who have the aptitude, willingness and power to transform and preserve space.

Critical Dialogue: Responsible leaders are informed leaders, so we actively create safe forums for courageous dialogue, fostering cross-disciplinary and cross-regional perspectives to anticipate global trends, opportunities, and challenges.

Cooperative Action: We push for decisive and cooperative action between key stakeholders to address sustainability, education, science, security, and capacity building, and the ripple effect of our community’s work has already benefited over 5 million people globally since the foundation’s establishment in 2019.
