Event Overview
Think you have what it takes to become the next James Bond (or Austin Powers)? Prove it at Spy Academy!
Our Virtual Spy Academy is an adrenaline-fuelled virtual corporate event that transforms your group into elite undercover agents in training. Working in teams of 3–6, participants progress through three spy training modules, collecting badges for each completed mission, from cracking cryptic codes and lip-reading to creative disguises and building their own secret gadgets. After earning their spy stripes, teams face their final test: cracking the case of who killed Agent Kelly, using all the skills they’ve just mastered.
With live hosting from one of our top ‘espionage experts’ and plenty of laughs along the way, this is the ultimate virtual team event to test your memory, logic and undercover creativity.
