ABOUT INNOVATORSBOX A D C - B A S E D C R E A T I V E E D U C A T I O N F I R M InnovatorsBox empowers leaders and organizations with creativity. Studies on innovation have shown how we are all wired to create. Yet, a 2016 Gallup study highlights how 87% of professionals today still feel stuck and lack a creative outlet. What if there was a way to change the way the 87% of professionals lived? Our mission is to build a community and space for all professionals to embrace creative thinking and innovation. Through experiential and team-focused programs, we teach professionals how to think creatively and how to integrate creative thinking into the workplace. To empower leaders and organizations, we make creative games and host creative workshops, seminars, social gatherings, and speaking events for the public and private clients.
QUICK FACTS Since launching in January 2016, InnovatorsBox has hosted 40 workshops and events for 470+ leaders. More than 85% of our program participants remain actively engaged in our community. 90% of individuals who took part in our programs expressed they had gained creative confidence and became better leaders and problem solvers. Our events range in size, from intimate groups of ten to larger, fifty person workshops.
