Bold ways to invent the future
You voted for thisWhen it comes to climate change, companies need bold ideas that truly stand out among a sea of noise.
We need new products, services, and campaigns that are provocative as well as effective in tackling our climate crisis.
Join The Determined for a fun interactive virtual workshop. Attendees will be exposed to a bold creative process called Thinking Wrong. It encourages people to generate ideas that go beyond typical, normal, boring status-quo boundaries. We’ll spend our time uncovering fresh approaches and wild ideas for taking Climate Action.
Takeaways:
+ Meet like-minded people interested in innovating around bold climate action
+ Share what you’re working on and get feedback from attendees
+ Adopt a fresh new perspective to catalyze new ideas
+ Walk away with fun prompts for Thinking Wrong and unlocking more creativity towards solving challenges in your work
Since 2018, we’ve been running guided networking events meant to get people talking, coming up with cool ideas, and getting motivated to take on our climate crisis. During the event, we introduce Think Wrong prompts, part of our creative process, to spark ideas and conversations. These prompts are something they can walk away with, to help them get unstuck and come up with cool ideas in their everyday lives.
These events are great at breaking the ice among conference attendees, unlocking connections throughout the rest of the conference.
Thinking Wrong helps with:
+ Coming up with fresh approaches to challenges

This event is great for:

+ Funders looking for their next investment
+ Entrepreneurs launching new businesses
+ Researchers diving deep into their work
+ Creative folks interested in seeing how their talents can help move ideas forward
Format:
+ Introduction to Thinking Wrong
