Startup mindset
No icebreakers. No passive listening. Your people leave having built something real.
Company events that generate new ideas
We design and run innovation experiences that give your team new ideas, new skills, and something to act on the very next day.
Plan your experienceIntroducing Outset
Outset is a new concept of business event, designed to help team create something new
A learning experience
Every session develops skills your team can use immediately: structured ideation, prototyping, and cross-functional collaboration.
Get concrete outcomes
You'll have tangible deliverables to bring back. Not a slide deck, but validated ideas with clear next steps.
Not your usual retreat
We handle everything, from venue to facilitation, logistics and branding, so you show up and run a great event.
What you'll walk away with
Real outcomes with real impact
New ideas
Validated ideas your team generated themselves. Not a consultant's recommendations, but their own thinking, structured and sharpened.
New ways of working
Practical habits and frameworks your team can use immediately, so the event pays off beyond the day itself.
Actionable concepts
Every group leaves with a prototype and a plan. Something to show, not just something to describe.

We plan the whole experience, involving you in every step to make sure it aligns to your expectations.
03
Experience
We run the experience as planned, either on-site or off-site, for one or more days.

Next steps
Did we generate some high-potential idea? We can plan next steps together to bring the project to market.

Frequently answered questions
What to know
Our events are designed with a startup mindset. Participants don't just listen — they ideate, prototype, and validate ideas in real time. Every session produces concrete, actionable outcomes, not just a slide deck.
It depends on the format. On-site workshops can be as short as half a day, while off-sites and hackathons typically run from 1 to 3 days. We tailor the duration to your goals and team size.
Absolutely. Every event starts with a deep briefing to understand your industry, team dynamics, and strategic objectives. We then design a bespoke experience around your specific needs.
You'll walk away with validated ideas, prototypes, and clear next steps. Our process is designed to generate real breakthroughs — not theoretical concepts — that your team can act on immediately.
We offer both on-site and off-site formats. Off-sites are hosted in unique partner venues like wineries, culinary ateliers, and creative spaces. On-site workshops happen directly at your office.
Our formats are flexible. We've run events for teams as small as 8 and as large as 100+. We adapt the facilitation, activities, and logistics to ensure every participant is fully engaged.
We build custom quotes based on team size, format, and location. Get in touch for a no-commitment call and we'll give you a clear indication within 24 hours.
Every session ends with documented outputs: idea briefs, prototypes, and a prioritised next-steps plan. These are yours to keep and share with leadership. For longer formats, we can also build a post-event report summarising outcomes, team participation, and recommended follow-up actions.
