Online learning
The Develop Platform
The Develop Platform is the skills and training element of Ingenuity.
An online learning platform featuring the best of knowledge and insights from leading industry, charity and academic leaders, as well as those already running enterprises that are changing the world we live in.
Your Ingenuity journey will lead you through Insights and then on to Tutorials, the two stages of Develop.
Insights features exclusive interviews with leaders from the UK’s top charities, NGOs, impact entrepreneurs, investors and corporate social responsibility specialists. These inspirational videos and resources will help you choose which of our Challenges to tackle and where to focus your idea.

Bex has worked in homelessness and social care for 30 years. Her work at Crisis impacts thousands of homeless people every year, providing vital help so that people can rebuild their lives. For Ingenuity she shares expert insights into one of the most complex challenges in our communities – ending homelessness.
Graham Duxbury, CEO of Groundwork
Graham has nearly 20 years’ experience helping public and voluntary sector organisations reach new audiences and deliver strategic communications and development campaigns. He’ll share his insights with Ingenuity into how to create a fairer and greener society, looking at the key issues facing our communities today, as well as how the Covid crisis has impacted upon society’s most vulnerable.
Tutorials will be going live in March 2021 and feature a wealth of videos from some of the nation’s top brands, industry professionals and academics. The content here will help you build a robust and tested business plan or proposition.
