What is an IDEAS For Us Team-Building Event?

IDEAS For Us is an environmental solutions incubator with a mission of developing, funding, and scaling solutions to the world’s most pressing environmental challenges. We do this by leading eco-action projects across the world and are offering exclusive employee engagement events to host your group in a private team building program to heal our planet and foster team building. This program is offered throughout our Florida branches in the Greater Orlando, Tampa / St. Petersburg, and Miami areas.

Eco-action projects include hands-on experiences in creating: edible gardens, shoreline restoration, waste clean ups, solar energy projects, pollinator gardens, and tree plantings. If you have an idea for an environmental or team building project that is not on this list, just reach out to us and we would love to hear your idea.
