Hands-on experiential program for curious corporates and managers looking for professional and personal inspiration. Join to learn, network, create, and share with like-minded people from different industries but with similar visions.
This first series of events in New York (and online) will be focused on sustainability, and during the session, we will use creativity and storytelling as tools to inspire, channel, and decode technological, social, and economic trends that are shaping our current reality and constantly creating newly available futures ahead of us.
hands-on _ leave with a deck + an experience
Drafting inspiration from the morning sessions, each participant will work on a personal project of their choice around sustainability.
Each participant will leave with a vision board, a lo-fi prototype, and a deck to convey both.
