    RIO+20 mobile exhibit & collaboratory prototypes

    Emerging Benchmarks is a mobile exhibit and prototyping platform where management education FOR the world can be prototyped, demonstrated and shared during RIO+20.  The exhibit consists of artistically designed and decorated two-seater benches, constructed from reclaimed material, and arranged in a learning circle. Symbolic of a commitment to reclaim and repurpose management education FOR the world, this exhibit is also a physical metaphor for the collaboratory, a concept that is central to the 50+20 vision.

    A limited number of benches are still available for sponsorship starting at     € 3,500. View all the benches >>
