Ways to work with us

Four ways in. Start with one.

Most partnerships start with one format, one project or one room — and grow from there.

01

Co-host an event or format

Your room, our crowd.

Hackathons, pitch nights, debates and salons. We shape the programme, moderate and bring young builders, researchers and students into the room.

  • Hackathons & pitch nights
  • Programme & moderation
  • Young talent on site
See how it works Plan a format
02

Bring a project or challenge

Real problems, real teams.

A question from your organisation, taken on by a named team from Software & Research — scoped, dated and delivered, like CAST+, our conflict-forecasting work with ACLED data.

  • Named lead
  • Scoped deliverable
  • Public write-up
See how it works Submit a challenge
03

Book an AI workshop

AI fluency, where it counts.

Free Claude workshops by approved Claude SMB Trainers, hands-on prototyping labs for teams, and AI literacy for every audience.

  • Introduction to Claude
  • AI prototyping lab
  • AI literacy
