The Blog

We are about to celebrate our 1 Year Birthday at THECUBE and it will be a time of reflection. There are still miles to go before we reach our ultimate goals, but the space has already started to make the ripples in the desired direction, starting with the concept and events.

The space is booming with a diverse community and brilliant thinkers, so our job is to provide our members with innovative platforms to make them better at what they do. We will start with Idea Engineering, which is an intelligence we designed based on the needs we observed amongst our members. It is there to provide members with innovation via events, workshops, and one to one sessions. Idea Engineering is what drives THECUBE forward and gives the space its distinction; all of our members know that they join a space that has a innovation at the forefront of its priorities.

Everyone at THECUBE, including the space itself are here to grow their idea and we cannot do that in isolation, we need a strong community to raise our businesses.

Platypus
This awkwardly named event is inspired from Matel’s company meetings in which they bring various staff members to brainstorm away from the day to day workspace. We have taken it one step further and included sessions on Neurobics, which are special mind exercises, we have adapted from the book by  Keep Your Mind Alive by Dr. Lawrence C. Katz and Dr. Manning Rubin.

CUBELEARN
We will be bringing in all kinds of interesting minds to do talks and workshops an THECUBE as part of expanding the neighborhood of knowledge.  In most cases ideas are generated when the mind is distracted as our mind thinks by associative maps and one thought can have a domino affect on ideas.

CUBEAGENCY
We had the launch of this event last week and we created a round table agency to help counsel local East London Entrepreneurs. This not only adds value for our members, but also helps generate a sense of trust within the community.

CUBELUNCH
One of members usually hosts our lunches and shares knowledge on their specific sector. These events help create a sense of community within our members and an environment that conduces the exchange of knowledge.

THECUBE gives local artists an opportunity to produce an art exhibition, we provide them with an audience, press, and advice on how to expand their brand. It is import for us to support our local economy and give opportunities to graduates.

There are many other little details that make THECUBE a special place to work, such as people finding new clients on their first day, or teaching graduates how to be innovators, so they stay ahead of the game.
