At the 2025 TIME100 Next Gala, the energy was palpable as Project Management Institute (PMI) and TIME Studios came together to celebrate the next generation of influential leaders. But amidst the celebration, a core question emerged: What does it take to actually change the world?

According to PMI Chief Marketing Officer Menaka Gopinath, the answer lies in balancing two critical elements: “Imagination for what’s possible, and implementation to make it real”.

That philosophy is the heartbeat of The Solutionaries.

This docuseries, a joint venture between TIME Studios and Project Management Institute, spotlights three entrepreneurs who are tackling climate change through innovation in food, fashion and recycling. They show how project management bridges vision with reality, creating solutions that will lead to a more regenerative future.

In attendance at the TIME100 Next event was Rebecca Hu-Thrams, a co-founder of Glacier, and one of the 3 people highlighted in The Solutionaries docuseries, who was recognized by Gopinath in her remarks. 

“The mission of the Solutionaries; to convey that principles like project management can turn lofty ideas into a reality, fits in perfectly with what we at Glacier are trying to do,” Hu-Thrams said.

As Gopinath reminded the room, “Let’s keep proving that scaling bold ideas can change the world”.
