Everything was strange ... everything ... the format, the participants, the topics, the expectations – everything was unusual. It didn’t match what I do at my computer every day. That’s what kept me coming back.

I became a sponge. And I kept putting drops of everything I soaked up into everything that I was doing. So the effect and the impact was huge – it even impacted the way I spoke about things.

The format presented such a fantastic tool for governments, organisations, and companies: they could present a problem to an amazing group of thinkers and get their problem dissected. In a matter of hours they could have a map of different inspirations and reflections that could help unlock solutions to that problem. That is incredibly valuable. If you put a problem in front of this group, you’re going to get an accelerated understanding of how to solve it.
Next problem!

“If we're talking in the language of symbols or images, it was a bit scary at times, a bit disturbing because you didn't quite know how you should navigate in that language or in that landscape. You didn't quite know in which country you were in. But you would always come to places where you hadn't been before.”
