The Regenerative Labs invites NICCT members to join a landmark half-day special session at the
2026 International System Dynamics Conference (ISDC), one of the world's premier academic and
practitioner gatherings on complex systems thinking.
Hosted at the TU Delft Aula Conference Center, this free session runs on the opening day of the ISDC 2026 conference, which brings together researchers, policymakers, diplomats, and business leaders from around the world to Delft.
The session is titled "Regenerative Labs & System Dynamics: A Systemic Approach to
Regenerating the Biosphere" and is co-organised by SparkHealth B.V. (member of NICCT), and WhatxNext on 20 July 2026.
This session is free of charge and especially relevant for NICCT members working at the intersection of the India-Netherlands bilateral relationship, AI, sustainability, and governance: themes that now sit at the heart of the India-Netherlands Strategic Partnership formalised in May 2026.
Why Should NICCT Members Attend?
India and the Netherlands have formally elevated their relationship to a Strategic Partnership,
committing to cooperation across AI, circular economy, green hydrogen, sustainable agriculture, digital health, and water management. The July 20 session gives NICCT members a unique opportunity to engage with exactly those themes, in a room that brings together earth scientists, simulation modellers, corporate leaders, diplomats, and system dynamics experts.
Regenerative Labs operates from a simple but powerful premise: healthy nature depends on healthy people, healthy societies, and a healthy planet, and every organisation has a responsibility to measure and strengthen all four.
The July 20 session translates this philosophy into practice: how do leaders, businesses, and governments use systems thinking and AI-powered tools to move from extraction to
restoration?
For NICCT members, the relevance is immediate:
1. Indian and Dutch companies are under growing pressure from regulators, investors, and
partners to demonstrate not just sustainability compliance, but genuine regenerative impact.
2. System dynamics modelling : the scientific backbone of this session offers a rigorous, datadriven
way to reveal the hidden costs of business-as-usual and model the long-term returns of
regenerative investment
3. The India-Netherlands corridor is one of the most dynamic bilateral relationships in Europe;
this session connects NICCT members to an international community of practitioner-researchers
at the frontier of systems thinking and regenerative business.
The session is co-organised by Deepti Panicker-Ligtenberg (CEO, SparkHealth), Jorge de Sousa
(CEO, WhatxNext) and the International Systems Dynamics Society ISDS.
