Facilitation & Workshops

Innovation Events

Tailored, High-Energy Sessions That Get Results

We create and run innovation events that do more than tick a box. Our sessions are sharp, well-facilitated and focused on delivering real outcomes—whether that’s new ideas, clearer strategy, or stronger collaboration across your team or stakeholders.

You bring the challenge. We design the event that gets it moving.

What We Deliver

Every event we run is built around your purpose and people. We work with businesses, public sector organisations, academic institutions and cross-sector partnerships to create innovation events that make a difference.

Some of our most requested formats include:

Sustainability Innovation Workshops

We design and facilitate workshops that help teams and organisations embed sustainability into their innovation efforts. These sessions focus on solving environmental and social challenges in commercially viable ways—helping you align purpose with performance. From net-zero strategy development to circular economy opportunities, we help you innovate sustainably and practically.

Innovation Sprint Facilitation

Condensed, action-focused sessions designed to generate, test and progress new ideas quickly. Ideal for new product development, business challenges, or strategy design.

Expert Chairing & Facilitation

When a meeting or event really matters—high-stakes, complex or politically sensitive—we’ll step in and lead it for you. Confident, neutral facilitation that keeps things moving and gets you to decisions and action.

Stakeholder Engagement & Collaboration

We bring diverse voices together—businesses, government, academia, community groups—and help them build shared understanding, alignment and practical next steps. Fast, focused collaboration that doesn’t drift.

Mission, Vision & Values Workshops

Whether you’re starting fresh or realigning your team, we facilitate sessions that help you articulate what matters and how you’ll deliver it. No vague statements—just real clarity that people believe in and can use.

Creative Facilitation Training

Our comprehensive, speciality facilitation programs designed to equip you, as a leader of innovation events, with the insight, self-awareness, skills and tools to significantly advance your innovation and group facilitation competence.

Client – Contractor Collaboration Workshops

Kickstart or reset your project and partnership working in a day, with your collaboration workshop tailored specifically for you and your project partners.
