Engagement Activities
Social Evenings
“Social Fridays” or themed Pub Nights incorporate after-hours games, for a cocktail hour mixing clever problem-solving with a shot of sustainability:
Easy, fun, skill-based challenges designed for curious and creative minds.
Like our nature-hack challenges, games where teams take on imaginary and real-world problems and race to crack them using biomimicry strategies, learning by playing, blending collaboration, competition, and a dash of pub-quiz energy.
Games on the Roof
Casual interactives designed for professionals, blending play with analogy-finding and creative thinking. Inspired by classic picnic and fair games, from bean-bag tosses to parachute-fabric and ping-pong ball challenges, each game is reimagined with a bio-inspired twist. Games serve as networking icebreakers for fun with collaboration, while subtly reinforcing nature’s lessons in circularity, sustainable design, and resilience.
​Expanding from the Corner: Share Your Success
Regular evening events spotlight local successes. Businesses present challenges overcome with nature’s strategies learnt at the Hub. These sessions extend learning beyond the workshops, reinforcing sustainability, innovation, and local resilience while growing a strong professional network.
Trips to the Field
Reconnections with nature through guided experiences, which might include:

Every trip links back to wellbeing, circularity, sustainable manufacturing, biophilic design inspiration, and the reconnect with nature ethos.
