A Space to Breathe.

A Place to Begin Again.

From Bhutan, With Intention

our story

The idea for Founders Retreat was born from a simple, powerful question: What if growth doesn’t always come from grinding—but from slowing down? At Impact Hub Thimphu, we saw what many founders were quietly feeling: the pace of entrepreneurship can be relentless. Burnout hides behind ambition. Purpose gets blurred by pressure. And sometimes, what’s missing isn’t another tool—but time to reconnect with why we started in the first place.

Rooted in Tradition

In Bhutan, tradition is not just history. It is a way of life.
Guided by values like mindfulness, harmony, and collective well-being, we offer a setting where presence matters just as much as progress.
The spirit of Gross National Happiness shapes how we live, work, and lead.

Built for Entrepreneurs

This retreat was created by people who know what it means to start something new.
We understand the highs and lows of building a venture. That is why this experience is not about pushing harder.
It is about stepping back to gain clarity, find balance, and reconnect with the purpose behind the work.
Through meaningful conversations, immersive local experiences, and time in nature, founders leave with a renewed sense of focus and direction.

Powered by Community

Bhutan values community deeply, and so do we.
This retreat brings together a diverse circle of people—local entrepreneurs, global innovators, artists, farmers, and mentors.
Each voice adds to the richness of the experience. Over shared meals, village visits, and quiet walks, relationships are built that go far beyond the retreat.

A Different Kind of Journey

Whether you are leading a company, launching a new idea, or simply looking for space to reflect, this retreat offers more than inspiration. It offers belonging, perspective, and a return to what matters most. We invite you to join us in Bhutan. Not just to take a break, but to begin again—with intention, with clarity, and with others by your side.

It all begins with a conversation.
