Origins Terms & Conditions

By registering for Origins (“Event”), the attendee (“Attendee”) agrees to the following Terms and Conditions.

Origins is an intentionally curated leadership experience with limited capacity. Registration is available on a first-come, first-served basis and is confirmed only upon receipt of a completed registration and full payment.

Because attendance is limited, registration shall not be considered reserved until payment has been received and confirmed by the Organizer.

Once all available participant spaces have been filled, additional interested individuals may be placed on a waitlist. If a registered attendee cancels or otherwise becomes unable to attend, the Organizer may offer the available space to an individual on the waitlist at its sole discretion.

Placement on the waitlist does not guarantee admission to the Event.

The Organizer reserves the right to approve, decline, revoke, or cancel registrations as necessary to preserve the intended experience, culture, values, and objectives of Origins.

Full payment is required at the time of registration.

Due to the limited capacity of the Event, the curated nature of attendance, and the financial commitments made in advance to secure accommodations, meals, activities, venues, and event services, all registration fees are non-refundable.

If an Attendee is unable to attend, written notice of cancellation must be provided to the Organizer as soon as reasonably possible.

If the Organizer is able to fill the Attendee’s space with another qualified participant who completes registration and submits full payment, the Organizer may, at its sole discretion, issue a refund of the registration fee less a $250 administrative processing fee.

No refund will be provided if the Attendee’s space cannot be filled.

Failure to attend the Event for any reason, including but not limited to illness, family emergencies, work obligations, travel disruptions, weather conditions, transportation delays, personal circumstances, or other unforeseen events, shall not entitle the Attendee to a refund.

Attendees are strongly encouraged to purchase travel insurance and trip cancellation insurance.

The Organizer reserves the right to modify, substitute, reschedule, relocate, or otherwise change any aspect of the Event as reasonably necessary, including but not limited to the Event schedule, speakers, facilitators, activities, programming, accommodations, meals, venues, entertainment, wellness offerings, or other Event-related services.

The Organizer reserves the right to make participant experience enhancements, programming additions, speaker substitutions, hospitality upgrades, or operational adjustments without prior notice.

While every effort will be made to deliver the Event substantially as described, Attendees acknowledge that changes may occur due to circumstances beyond the Organizer’s control, operational considerations, participant availability, venue requirements, weather conditions, safety concerns, or other unforeseen factors.

Such modifications shall not constitute grounds for cancellation, withdrawal, chargeback, or refund.

In the unlikely event that the Organizer elects to cancel the Event in its entirety, the Organizer’s sole obligation shall be limited to refunding registration fees actually paid by Attendees.

Under no circumstances shall the Organizer be responsible for any additional costs, expenses, losses, or damages incurred by Attendees as a result of the cancellation, postponement, relocation, or modification of the Event, including but not limited to airfare, lodging, transportation, meals, travel insurance, lost wages, lost business opportunities, or other travel-related or incidental expenses.

The Organizer reserves the right to postpone or reschedule the Event when circumstances reasonably warrant such action. In such cases, registration fees may be transferred to the rescheduled Event date at the Organizer’s discretion.

Origins may be photographed, filmed, recorded, livestreamed, or otherwise documented during the course of the Event.
