Collaborate Sprint 2026 - One day. One real-world challenge. Lots of big ideas.

Join Loughborough University London's Future Space for an action-packed Collaborate Sprint, where you'll work in teams to tackle a real-world challenge set by our collaborating organisation, Authentic Brew.

Put your ideas to the test through fast-paced ideation, teamworking and problem-solving before pitching your solutions at the end of the day. A chance to think differently, share perspectives, meet new people and turn creative thinking into practical solutions.
We're also excited to welcome students from DePaul University, Chicago, who have been joining Loughborough's innovation challenges for the past eight years. This is a fantastic opportunity to collaborate with students from another university, exchange ideas and bring different perspectives to the challenge.
