A warm thank you to all of them for their dedication and smart inputs!

ThinkSport was able to bring together relevant people around our topic. As the topic leader we were able to actively participate in the organisation and moderation of the ideation workshops.There were two interesting testing scenarios that resulted from the ideation workshop and I am glad that we can move forward with these.

Being part of this NTN Innovation Booster is an exciting process. The meeting of various practitioners of different business sectors and different public actors as well as researchers provides the fruitful grounds to create innovative ideas. The transfer of these ideas into practice is the next step in this process I am looking forward too.

Taking part in this Health City NTN Innovation Booster was a breath of fresh air as Active Design in general and an interdisciplinary approach to getting our communities more active and healthy are not a given in this part of the world. I found the session well introduced, well facilitated and extremely stimulating. It is high time we reconsidered the way we design and operate our cities, placing people’s individual and collective well-being at the heart of urban governance!

I enjoyed the experience to brainstorm on the topic of Concussion in Hockey with a group of experts from different fields. It was fascinating to see ideas grow in a thought-provoking environment provided by ThinkSport and Bearmind.
