How to Cocreate: Certified Workshop

Day 2: Cambridge Cocreation Workshop

Cambridge Policy Boot Camp

Register for Day 2 →

The Cambridge Policy Boot Camp is a separately ticketed event.

On Day 2, the insights and provocations from Co-Creating Code will be unpacked through an intensive systems-thinking experience delivered by the University of Cambridge. Rapid Complex Systems training is brought to you by FITT, IIT Delhi.

Led by the University of Cambridge professors who developed the award-winning Cambridge Policy Boot Camp (CPBC) methodology and alike. Participants will learn how to co-create faster, better and more cost-effective solutions to complex challenges in the era of AI.

The Cambridge Cocreation approach has been applied to a diversity of complex and time sensitive challenges linked with investment and policy innovation across 57+ countries and used to train 600+ executives at the University of Cambridge.

Participants will receive a Certificate of Participation from the University of Cambridge and FITT, IIT Delhi. This is not another conference workshop. It is a chance to turn ideas into action.

Participants leave with a Certificate of Participation and a transferable framework they can apply immediately within their own organisations.

01

Identify Untapped Assets

Surface hidden resources, capabilities, and voices within your system that are routinely overlooked, and learn how to mobilise them for better AI outcomes.

02

Identify Unintended Consequences

Develop the diagnostic skills to spot second- and third-order effects of AI deployment before they become entrenched harms: for communities, institutions, and markets.

03

Combine Diversified Assets

Learn how to bring together knowledge, expertise, and perspectives from across sectors and geographies to design more resilient, inclusive AI governance frameworks.

04

Reduce Risks of Failure

Apply structured co-creation techniques that stress-test policy interventions against real-world constraints, reducing the likelihood of costly missteps at scale.

Day 2 is ticketed separately from the main conference. A Certificate of Participation is awarded on completion. View pricing →
