Mavericks Congress<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Inspiring Innovative, Interdisciplinary Collaboration through Play<\/h3>\n

Using mixed-reality experiences as a catalyst for disruptive innovation, the Mavericks Congress is perfect for organizational retreats focused on enhancing team dynamics. Participants must work together to solve problems. Along the way, they learn the expertise of everyone on their team.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The Mavericks Congress disrupts organizational hierarchies,\nsparking collaboration between participants. Participants must rely on each\nother\u2019s expertise and work together to solve problems. Along the way, they gain\ninsight into fellow participants\u2019 skillsets and problem-solving strategies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mavericks Congress is also great for organizations\nlooking for transformational networking and collaboration across sectors and\nfields. We bring together leaders and innovators working in adjacent fields, and\nMavericks levels the collaborative playing field so that innovation solutions\nand new partnerships can emerge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
