ABOUT US
Next San Diego is a grassroots community of entrepreneurs who are passionate about regenerative business practices.
OUR VISION
Our vision is to be a network of networks within San Diego and beyond. To connect all of the incredible individuals and organizations that are making positive systemic change for the world.
