Marcel Fukayama
Tomas is an outstanding global netweaver for a new economy. His capacity to articulate and develop important conversations towards a more circular, collaborative and regenerative economy is remarkable. He navigates brightly in the frontier of innovation. His ability to engage different communities combined with his forward-thinking agenda make Tomas one of the main global leaders for an inclusive and sustainable economy. At individual dimension, he is a lovely person with high-level of active listening. He is purpose-driven systems changer always open to practice empathy and collaboration. Someone who I’m personally proud to share the journey with.

Tomas is an open-minded, outstanding and incredibly brave entrepreneur. He is the business partner I always wanted to have. Fortunately, I had the opportunity to be by his side in many projects since 2012. His dynamic style, workflow, and energy make him a fundamental professional in any team. Great public speaker on #NewEconomy, #CollaborativeProjects, #Sustainability and #SocialEntrepreneurship. He is an expert in his field due to his worldwide connection with many groups of social entrepreneurs that are moving the world forward. Tomas is not afraid to walk in unknown lands. Actually, he feels comfortable "opening" new paths and showing how to B The Change. It is an honor to be his friend and colleague in projects that seek to shape the state of the world.

Cities CAN B exist so that all the actors of the city can participate collaboratively in its sustainable development. Cities CAN B is a global movement designed to mobilize hundreds of thousands of people (citizens and organizations) to collaborate in pursuit of the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals), through multistakeholder and decentralized governance. From a collaborative and multisectoral approach, everyone participates without the need to agree in advance on a specific strategy or roadmap. Thus, the paths of action are multiple and varied, all of them under a previously shared common purpose. Each member of the governance structure or strategic partner can pursue their own goals and benefit in their own way, as long as they are in tune with the agreed common purpose. (ESPAÑOL) Las Ciudades+B existen para que todos los actores de la ciudad puedan participar colaborativamente en el desarrollo sostenible. Ciudades+B es un movimiento global diseñado para movilizar a cientos de miles de personas (ciudadanos y organizaciones) para que colaboren en pos de los ODS (Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible), a través de una gobernanza multistakeholder y descentralizada. Desde un enfoque colaborativo y multisectorial, todos participan sin necesidad de acordar de antemano una estrategia u hoja de ruta específica. Así, los caminos de acción son múltiples y variados, todos ellos bajo un propósito común previamente compartido. Cada miembro de la estructura de gobernanza o socio estratégico puede perseguir sus propios objetivos y beneficiarse a su manera, siempre y cuando esté en sintonía con el propósito común acordado.
