A California Learning Destination and Wellness Retreat For Conversations that Matter

From crafting a healthier lifestyle by emphasizing your inner fitness to unlocking the secrets to successful leadership, the answers for self-discovery and growth can be found within the immersion programs at 1440 Multiversity—America's newest learning destination.

Question, strategize, and think outside the box in personal and professional development courses led by mold-breaking luminary thinkers and esteemed practitioners whom we call champions. Named for the number of minutes in a day, 1440 is a principle—1440 minutes in each day to be more aware, authentic, empathic, connected, and present. Together with our champions, we believe in building compassionate communities around the world . . . one person, one relationship, one connection, each minute of each day, one resilient act at a time.

1440 Multiversity is an operating 501(c)(3) philanthropic campus that supports charitable causes in the Bay Area. Thank you for supporting our work of self, society and pioneering new paths for collaborative communities in the world.
