A blackberry is composed of drupelets, each contributing to the richness of the whole. In natural ecosystems, linkages like pollinator pathways form the connective tissue sustaining life. These subtle networks mirror the collaborative frameworks we aim to build between health, care, and technology.

“Our approach on visual communication reflects the Bumblekite ethos: each unique part is celebrated for its role in creating a whole bigger than the sum of its components. This embodies our understanding of sustainability. For us, it is a dynamic system much like a blackberry (a “bumblekite”).

Think of Bo as a symbol of how everything in nature is linked, working together in harmony. A reminder that sustainability starts with connection.”, Frenci Sanna, Bumblekite’s brand designer

At the centre of our lessons learned 2024 are the seemingly small changes - over 300 feedback data points we have carefully woven into the fabric of our 2025 iteration.
We invite you to have a look at them: www.bumblekite.co/lessonslearn...
March 10, 2025 at 7:08 PM
As a team, we compile these insights into lessons learned, a space dedicated to reflection and critical thought - the start of our common experience. We begin our journey embracing vulnerability by sharing our own learnings, and holding space for our collective and individual growth as we continue.

"It was energising to be in an environment where kindness, curiosity and intellectual humility reigned. I look forward to be in and help create many more such spaces.” -Bernardo Pereira

Fostering a shift in perspective through crafting a moment of reflection while preserving the autonomy of one’s decision making has been a deeply meaningful experience to us.
For those who are curious how we shared this data, we invite you to have a look at our Bumblekite 2024 office hour form.

For reference, our programme consistently achieved gender parity within the leaders we invite. In 2024, we shared these numbers at the moment participants fill in their office hour form.
We noticed: 57% of male participants chose a female leader while 50% of female participants chose a male leader.

Ahead of our week in Switzerland, we ask our participants to share with us their selection of top 3 leaders they would like to meet.
In 2023, we noticed that 20% of male participants put a female leader as their top choice, while 40% of female participants placed a male leader first on their list.

Within our Bumblekite machine learning programme, we curate office hours - opportunities for our participants to talk to the leaders we invite 1:1 or in a small group setting about their most eagerly anticipated questions, that they would feel more comfortable asking in a more intimate setting.

Ahead of the International Women’s Day we are excited to share an example of our multi-year, detail-oriented investment in this area. We hope it might encourage to think about where the decision-making points in your system could be enriched with data that could drive change in your community.

Oswaldo was one of our runner-ups for our outstanding collaboration award 2024.
From nurturing comments, being a supportive tutorial partner to “hijacking” our reflection form to offer other participants help with their job interviews.
His thoughtful gestures made us better - Oswaldo, thank you.
