Tendrel is a global professional association for systems entrepreneurs at many stages – or entrepreneurs dedicated not only to increasing their organization’s social impact, but also to transforming the systems that perpetuate the social issues they are trying to solve.

Derived from Tibetan, Tendrel means “interdependence,” or the idea that all phenomena exist because of dependent relationship with other phenomena.
