 Escape Rooms

An escape room can be an exciting and engaging way for new teams to get to know each other and established teams to let off steam and strengthen existing relationships. An escape room is a themed challenge event where players work together to find clues and solve a variety of puzzles in order to ‘escape’ the room. There is usually a time-bound goal to get out of the room. There are many different escape rooms in Essex to choose from such as prison-themed, war-themed, fantasy-themed and more all depending on your preferences. Escape room events have a range of benefits that include collaboration, communication, decision making, problem solving and creative thinking. All these can be taken back to the office to help with projects.

Themed Events 

For the ultimate corporate event that you won’t want to miss out on, choose an activity inspired by the hit TV show, The Apprentice. Throughout The Apprentice’ experience, you and your team will be set challenging business tasks which will be judged by the aggressive boss and his consults to declare one team the winner. The winning team gets to enjoy a little treat whilst the losers fight it out in the boardroom! This corporate event is one not to be missed in Essex as you can have fun outside of the office whilst building on your entrepreneurial skills.
