The Ladder Team
The Ladder is a global goals accelerator. We mobilise people to reach global goals, locally. Our innovation workshops (so-called Sprints) facilitate inclusive and efficient collaboration between technologists, scientists, civic society, governments and enterprises. https://theladder.io
* Number is dependant on the number of facilitators available in Cork and public interaction. Dublin runs 40+ sprints per year with 5 organisations simultaneously. Expected number of sprints is 1-2 for Jan/Feb then ramping up as new facilitators are trained.
