Good creativity and has enjoyed working with the team. Good fun and days not too long.

We have enjoyed seeing our son learn the chain of invention from early ideas to prototype and be able to present his work in front of the other parents. Children were very enthusiastic presenting their job and they all were super proud of the exhibit they organized.

This program has been extraordinarily. My Y3 son enjoyed it. The teachers were amazing.

The kids had fun, which was the Most important thing for us. The staff was really nice and friendly.

8billionideas offers that rare solution to schools when there just isn't the capacity within the existing system: providing children and young people opportunities to nurture the skills, knowledge and confidence needed to pursue their passions within a work context.

Have loved working with David and his team over the last decade. He has truly inspired many of our young people to be brave, think creatively and look towards the future with optimism.

Working with ‘8 Billion Ideas’ has been an absolute pleasure. David J Harkin is a dynamic and engaging speaker. ‘Creating Ripples’ really supported our team to look inwards and deeply consider how they could both support themselves and become more impactful positive team members. I’d highly recommend this company to anyone who is looking for an injection of positivity and team spirit. We began with them in 2023 and have continued.

I have been working with 8billionideas for over 10 years and their focus on creative and strategic thinking, collaboration, innovation, technology and financial literacy are all essential skills which give our pupils the competitive edge in today’s world. Our pupils have gained significantly from their regular Cocurricular Clubs, Enterprise Weeks and work experience as well as attending 8billionideas summer school.

8Billionideas offer something to schools that no other company does. Additionally their staff are professional and knowledgeable. Our students were totally engaged in their project for the days 8Billionideas were with us and really proud of their achievement. 8Billionideas support schools in bringing life skills for the future into the wider curriculum; entrepreneurship, collaboration, problem-solving, creativity - time with 8Billionideas brings all of this to students.

My child loves the camp! Children did a lot of interesting projects! Teachers are great!

The team of 8Billionideas have been a brilliant addition to our programme at an international school in Germany. We have worked with them in purely online, purely in person and in hybrid mode. Throughout this experience they have been responsive, friendly, personable, approachable and able to help us work out what packages work for us. They have been so flexible and understanding also and maintain regular contact with us. Their workshop leaders are engaging, energetic, passionate people who bring much to enhance the delivery. We have really enjoyed with them in flagship enrichment events and also our careers programmes. Highly recommended.

Our daughter had such a great experience - she has a tough time with new camps but she quickly fell in love with the counselors and was excited to go each day! Claire and Joel were so fun and kind and they really made an effort to bring her along with them. Thank you!

The team did a great job managing a class with wide variation in ages and experience levels. The exercise working in a team to create a new country encouraged creativity and collaboration. We enjoyed our experience.

Joel and Claire were so welcoming and helpful when we had to switch in our kiddo after the camp had started. The camp was engaging and our kiddo was excited for camp on the regular.

We have been an 8 Billion Ideas Partner School for over five years. 8Bill has energised our enterprise work and helped us broaden its scope to our Prep/ Primary School as well as our Senior School. Parents love our week-long Prep School summer enterprise projects with content delivered by 8Bill, culminating in our children presenting to their peers and parents.

Fantastic collaboration to deliver a partnership between 8BillionIdeas and Farms for City Children, with funding from the Chatsworth Foundation. #GROW24 delivered a programme for schools to teach them about food, farming and the natural world culminating in the chance to win a week on one of our farms. Wonderful to see the culmination of the programme this week as a school from Streatham enjoyed a life changing experience in Devon.
Congratulations to the team at 8Billion for driving innovation in the educational opportunities afforded to children in our schools.

My school has used 8billionideas twice now and the most recent experience was excellent. From start to finish the process has been smooth and clear throughout. From my initial call with Lewis to talk about the products/workshops on offer, to working with Danica behind the scenes to make sure all the logistics were on point and finally to Joel for facilitating the event itself, it was all seamless and every person I interacted with was super helpful and kind. Although it is more on the expensive side, I think there is definitely value in spending the money, especially if your school is new to entrepreneurship or you don't have the confidence to run a whole year workshop by yourself. The boys absolutely loved designing and building the board games - it was really practical. Thank you!

My experience is seeing 8Billion in schools that I work with.

The opportunities they provide students with the grow their future-ready skills is brilliant. Students always talk very highly of the opportunities to practice and showcase their High Performance Learning skills with 8Billion.
