For participants, the Lab is an immersive learning exchange. Modelled off the learnings and successes of the Canadian GTA Housing Action Lab over the past four years, with whom Business Models Inc. shares a learning exchange memorandum of understanding, the Housing Action Lab will provide an environment to test and explore solutions to entrenched challenges.
The HAL creates real solutions for social change. A necessity as the sector looks to reset, reimagine and restart in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.
What transformative actions can we take together today, to deliver the housing solutions of tomorrow creating prosperity for all ages and life stages?
The Housing Action Lab drives actions forward.
Through co-investment and partnership, we incubate opportunities identified to facilitate new ventures, joint projects and even the creation of new startups. Working with Queensland’s industry leaders, backed by QShelter and programmed by Business Models Inc, the Housing Action Lab helps to mitigate risk and accelerates success by leveraging the power of the network. Five key opportunity areas have been identified for the Housing Action Lab to explore.
1. Homelessness
Devising actions that enable zero homelessness.
2. New Funding models
Creating mechanisms to create growth.
3. New ways to operate
Exploring solutions for viability.
4. Loneliness and wellbeing
Curating concepts to increase inclusion.
5. Housing affordability
Designing models that create homes.
