OffGrid Sessions

Osea Island, UK

OffGrid Sessions is a two‑day “ideas festival” designed for people who’s job it is to look outside of their organisation. It involves 250 curious minds to spend two days discovering new ideas and thinking differently. Taking over Osea Island from 1–3 July 2026, the event looks at the some of the biggest global trends through a social, political, economic and cultural lens. The event gathers around a dozen speakers from across journalism, science, art, and entrepreneurship—each chosen to broaden how participants see the world and their work.
