RETREAT
THE
The NNRRTV off-site workshop in Athens
Twice a year, in May and October, we invite a small group of leaders, founders, and cultural decision-makers from our network to Athens.
THE RETREAT is a four-day expedition into the future — designed for people who sense that the old strategic maps are no longer enough.
Between the city of Athens and the landscape of the ancient oracle of Delphi, we create a temporary thinking space for long-horizon strategy, cultural intelligence, and future imagination. Part workshop, part field trip, part collective reset, it is a unique format where we explore our methods together in a real-world setting:
future storytelling
speculative strategy
systems thinking
cultural foresight
Together, we step beyond quarterly logic and immediate market pressure to ask larger questions:
What becomes relevant over the next 25 years?
What kind of company, institution, or role do you actually want to build?
Which narratives are ending — and which new realities are already emerging?
THE RETREAT is intentionally small. No conference atmosphere. No generic innovation vocabulary. No performative networking. Instead: concentrated conversations, shared meals, walks through Athens, working sessions, cultural references, moments of silence, and a journey to Delphi — historically considered the center of the world and a place for strategic orientation in times of uncertainty.
Participants leave with new perspectives, unexpected alliances, and a clearer sense of direction for the decade ahead.
Applications are open for the next editions in May and October.
