Thrive Festival 2026: The Event Troubleshooter

Could you stop an AI launch disaster?


Brookes Enterprise Thrive Festival

What it is

An interactive board game in which you troubleshoot high-stakes scenarios, from an AI product launch going wrong to a blackout at a 100,000-person festival. The game was developed by Oxford Brookes Business School lecturers with Brookes students and industry experts.

It’s part of Thrive Festival 2026, Oxford Brookes Enterprise Support’s free two-week programme of workshops, networking and talks for Global Entrepreneurship Week.

What you’ll get from the session

  • A hands-on way to test your problem-solving under pressure
  • Real-world scenarios designed with industry experts
  • The chance to meet students and entrepreneurs from across Oxford
