NuMundo operates as a social networking platform focused on connecting travelers with "impact centers" dedicated to regenerative living and personal transformation. The company was founded in April 2013 by David Casey, Erika Logie, Shayna Gladstone, and Jennifer Schmidt, with Lukas Sommer later joining as a technical co-founder. The founders' backgrounds are rooted in managing and participating in such centers, which gave them firsthand insight into the challenges these organizations face in gaining visibility.

The initial idea for NuMundo emerged from co-founder David Casey's four years of travel in Latin America, where he identified a demand for a trusted, centralized source of information for what the company terms "impact centers." These centers include ecovillages, permaculture farms, and yoga retreats that focus on individual growth, regenerative living education, and creating a positive local impact. The platform serves a niche market of conscious travelers seeking experiences that go beyond conventional tourism. The business provides a directory and booking functionality for these centers, creating a marketplace for transformational travel.

In a significant milestone, NuMundo was accepted into the Startup Chile accelerator program in 2015, receiving a $30,000 grant from the Chilean government. This funding enabled a complete rebuild of the platform with modern web technologies, leading to the launch of a beta version in June 2015. The platform aims to facilitate a global network of centers committed to permaculture principles—a philosophy centered on working with nature to create sustainable and resilient habitats. This approach emphasizes observing natural patterns, using renewable resources, and producing no waste to build a more permanent and thriving culture for all forms of life.
