Learning experience for creative leaders

Agnes WillenborgManaging Director

Culture is the greatest invention of humanity. We created our own world and with it our own

freedom and limitations.

Most of the large-scale challenges we face today are human-made. In other words, humans

should be able to resolve them again. Culture is in need of a grant new scheme and THNK takes the

lead in its design.

Our societal and economical challenges ahead are of such complexity that they require creative leaders,

with a human-centered, multidisciplinairy approach.

THNK offers you a learning experience to develop yourself as a creative leader.

THNK integrates design thinking, emerging technology, and business building to create value

and have impact

World-wide, we gather talent, brilliance, and skills in areas like: design, arts, technology, business, science

and governance.

These are the disciplines, we believe, that in creative collaboration can make the

difference: From idea to implementation, from a local to a global scale.

It is not about designing the next chair

Instead, current society requires the design of new products, services, systems,

organisations, processes, situations

On big questions such as the future of cities

And other complex challenges in area’s like healthcare, mobility, sustainability and finance
