UKABC Welcome Shri Shri Ravi Shankar at The MontCalm Hotel, Marble Arch, London on 18th June 2016 This event presents a unique opportunity to interact with Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, whom Forbes Magazine identified as one of the top five most powerful figures in India and who has reached over 300 million people worldwide.

Renowned humanitarian and spiritual leader Sri Sri Ravi Shankar has captured the hearts and minds of millions around the world through his meditations, breathing techniques and wisdom. He is an icon of non-violence and seeks global peace through service and fostering human values.

Sri Sri's expertise and success as a peacemaker in areas of conflict resolution, has been underpinned by his unique ability to bring people together through these practices.

This was highlighted in March 2016 at the World Culture Festival - an event that celebrated 35 years of Sri Sri’s organisation the Art of Living, where 3.7 million people from 155 different countries came together, to celebrate peace and to meditate with Sri Sri.

The Council’s role is therefore best understood through the quality of the conversations created and the follow-up those conversations make possible. For businesses and institutions, events in the Insights programme provide a structured setting in which to understand priorities before making commitments. Participants can hear different perspectives, test assumptions and identify where a credible introduction may be useful.

This approach is especially important in international work, where local context, trust and clarity often determine whether an initial discussion develops into a sustainable relationship. The programme also contributes to UKABC’s public record. Documenting the people involved, the subjects discussed and the intended outcomes helps future partners understand the Council’s experience.

It gives search engines and readers a clearer account of the organisation’s work while preserving the history of relationships that may continue across several years or projects. UKABC approaches relationship-building as a practical responsibility rather than a ceremonial exercise.

The objective is to help organisations move from interest to informed action: understanding the opportunity, meeting relevant people and agreeing a realistic next step. That principle is reflected in the way the Council combines business discussion with direct introductions, clear context and continuing engagement.

For prospective participants, the value of Welcoming Sri Sri Ravi Shankar is not limited to attendance on the day. The lasting opportunity comes from the insight gained, the credibility of the connections made and the possibility of future collaboration. UKABC continues to develop this work through roundtables, business events, international partnerships, community initiatives and carefully selected recognition programmes.
