Debate Mate featured in Forbes this weekend for revolutionising the way companies collaborate whilst giving back to their local communities during lockdown:
“It may not seem possible to create a team bonding experience that’s fun, educational, connective and at the same time provides an opportunity to give back. But tell that to the folks at Debate Mate. Their Boardroom to Classroom program helps teams of professionals hone their communication, confidence and leadership skills. Then, participants pay it forward by teaching these skills to Debate Mate students. The sessions typically end with a “challenge” where the students and professionals work together to create an innovative solution to a problem affecting their local community. Debate Mate partners with Number 10 Downing Street, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and Oxford University. Their clients include Goldman Sachs, BCG, bp, and UBS.”
