About this Event

It is time to take some time away from the office/home/kitchen table or wherever you have been working from and take a moment to stand back, reflect and think about the future. Sometimes having a change of scene can make all the difference so why not join us to explore the latest in adventure tourism including materials and infrastructure. You will get the opportunity discuss innovation and new/different ways of doing things all the while being inspired by the places we visit and business leaders we engage with.

Using academic research, the University of Exeter has designed the “Innovation in the wilds” series including this overnight stay. These inspiring, educational sessions are based on business innovation and to explore discussion away from traditional learning environments.

This trip is suitable for any sector business and any level of employee within that business. Participation at The Wave is voluntary. The surf session is aimed at beginners/those with limited surf experience but should be great fun regardless!
