Revolutionising Philanthropy Travel in Provence, France.

PHILANTHROPIC TRAVEL EXPERIENCE IN ITALY

Elkemist is an intimate five-day experience set in the timeless beauty of Provence. Designed to bring together those creating meaningful impact in the world, this gathering blends the charm of the French countryside with thoughtful conversation, curated cultural encounters, and shared purpose. Set at the stunning Domaine de Chabran — an 18th-century villa transformed into a five-star private estate — this reflective gathering offers space for connection, alignment, and contribution.

Throughout the experience, you’ll engage in intimate dialogue with visionary founders, philanthropic leaders, and a thoughtfully invited circle of changemakers. Elkemist offers an opportunity to explore themes of leadership in philanthropy, trust-based giving, and the causes shaping our shared future. Each day weaves together purpose-driven conversations, cultural immersion, and hosted dinners that celebrate connection, generosity, and the art of gathering with intention.

JOIN THIS EXPERIENCE TO EXPLORE

Empowerment

Explore what "empowerment" truly means and its profound significance for humanity. Engage with visionary leaders who champion the potential within every individual and community. Discover how empowerment ignites confidence, fosters opportunity, and transforms lives—shaping a future where people everywhere can thrive and contribute to a better world for all.

For the past ten years, Satopia has been hosting experiences in partnership with foundations and organisations that give back to local communities and global initiatives. We’re proud to bring many of those we’ve met along the way to the South of France — to connect with our community of changemakers through dialogue, shared purpose, and the power of presence.

Elkemist Experiences connect people from around the world through their shared values, love of travel, and commitment to positive global transformation. There is a spark in every person that can change the world. Elkemist ignites those sparks and transforms individual dreams into positive change for humanity and the planet.

We believe courage is contagious. When people with purpose come together, they inspire each other to imagine new possibilities and create lasting rights for future generations. At Elkemist, we create opportunities to make that kind of impact real — through presence, alignment, and shared intention.

Each Elkemist Experience brings people together to inspire, inform, and engage — so that together, we can create inclusion, celebrate diversity, support the planet, and stimulate meaningful social change.
