TLL Updates

We’re excited to share three crucial updates with our growing ecosystem:

1. Become a Helper to Shape the TLL Ecosystem for SDG Advancements

To better serve our mission and community, we're inviting you to participate in two important questionnaires designed to help us centralize and matchmake more effectively within our ecosystem. By completing these, you'll play a vital role in refining our collective efforts toward sustainable development goals (SDGs).

• TLL Ecosystem for SDG Advancements: This questionnaire helps us map out our ecosystem, allowing us to better connect people and entities for impactful collaborations. This questionnaire has 6 sections and the completion time is between 5-7 minutes without rush.

• Evaluating the Need for an AI-Powered SDG Data Platform: Your feedback is crucial as we explore the creation of an AI-powered platform to centralize real-time, fact-checked data on SDGs. The survey is concise and should take just 4-5 minutes of your time.

Please share them with any stakeholder around the SDG spectrum because this will help all parties involved. We placed them on our TLL website as well. In short, “Help us, help you.”

2. New Opportunities: Join the TLL Team

We’re currently recruiting for two exciting positions within TLL:

• SDG Ambassadors: Help us spread the word and gather insights by driving participation in our surveys. This role comes with significant future growth potential. Just reply to this email and retitle it “SDG Ambassador” and tell us why would you like this role. Share your LinkedIn as well.

• Revenue Share Business Partner: We are offering a lucrative position to those interested in helping launch our first-ever TLL services, specifically designed to support entrepreneurs building companies in the SDG space. This role offers the chance to earn based on merit while contributing to our mission-oriented community.

3. Impact Services for Tech Startups

If you’re a startup founder, our services are designed to give you an unfair advantage in the market while supporting TLL’s mission. Check them out and serve yourself.

P.S. If you miss something you need reach out and we’ll evaluate if we can add it and find proper specialists for it. We are here for you and we are in this together.

As we near our first anniversary on September 13th, we reflect on the partnerships and collaborations we’ve facilitated—over 80 to date! From co-founders to clients, new jobs to lifelong friendships, our ecosystem is thriving, and it’s all thanks to you.

Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you for being part of this incredible journey.

Today's Event: Behavioral Economics & Sustainability

Join us in just a few hours for a groundbreaking event on the intersection of behavioral economics and sustainability.

What an exciting event to blend behavior and sustainability. This topic is long overdue because you cannot succeed in any such endeavor without being very conscious and knowledgeable about our cognitive biases, irrationality, and the entire spectrum of human behaviors that drive our lives and future.

We have the opportunity to run this conversation with one of the top experts in this very domain: Dan Ariely, a Duke professor of Behavioral Economics and Psychology, and bestselling author of the notorious Predictably Irrational and author of several more with his latest, Misbelief.
