Creating Through Purpose

A two-hour session on purpose, applied consciousness, and building businesses where happiness and purpose come first.
About this Event

What comes before the thought of what I want to create?

SKC World and The DMBA at CCA bring a two-hour session built around a single pause: why do we do what we do? Before the idea, before the sketch, before the pitch, something else is already at work — inspiration, intuition, the pain we actually want to solve. This evening is about learning to tell a purpose that's genuinely yours from a narrative you picked up without noticing.

Drawing on SKC World's experience guiding and mentoring over 10,000 entrepreneurs, and influencing more than $8 billion in enterprise value, this is a chance to experience Sameer Kamboj — founder of SKC World and Conscious Entrepreneurship™️ — and the idea of applied consciousness in person. You'll also hear from the People of Unmukt: founders who haven't just talked about this, they've built real, successful businesses with happiness and purpose as the starting point, not the reward at the end.

We'll explore:

• What actually comes before the idea — inspiration, intuition, and the pain we're truly trying to solve

• How to tell a purpose that's consciously yours from a narrative that's simply playing out through you

• What applied consciousness looks like inside a real, working business — not as theory, but as it's actually been lived
