Future Thinking at the Next Nature Museum
About this Event
Most founders plan one quarter ahead. The world your business will live in is being built much further out than that.
On Thursday 17 September, Eindhoven Entrepreneurs takes over the Evoluon for an afternoon with the Next Nature Museum.
The Evoluon turns 60 this year. It was built as a promise about the future, and it is still asking the same question: What happens between an idea and the moment that idea becomes normal?
You start with a guided tour through the exhibitions, led by an educator who knows how to turn complex ideas into a story you can use. Then comes Future Thinking, a method developed by the Next Nature Museum. In this interactive session you work through future scenarios with the other founders in the room. Not theory. Your own business, held against what is coming.
We close with a drink and time to talk.
The Evoluon turns 60. An afternoon worth 80 euro, for 24,95. The Evoluon, the building that houses the Next Nature Museum, turns 60 this year. Next Nature Museum is celebrating that with us, and as our partner they agreed a special rate for Eindhoven Entrepreneurs. That is the only reason twenty people can join a programme worth 80 euro for 24,95.
