ABOUT BIGGER IDEAS

About the Founder

Carrie Dugan brings deep experience in research, design, and strategy, helping organizations better understand people and turn insight into meaningful action. She has worked with teams to explore complex challenges, uncover opportunities, and shape ideas that lead to stronger experiences and clearer direction. Her work is grounded in curiosity, thoughtful collaboration, and a belief that the best ideas emerge when people come together to see problems from new perspectives.

Bigger Ideas was built around a simple belief: shared experiences create
real connection.

We design spaces, moments, and gatherings that bring people together in meaningful ways. Not just activities, but experiences that spark curiosity, conversation, and new perspectives.

When people are present with each other, ideas grow. Collaboration happens more naturally.
Communities form.

That’s the space where bigger ideas begin.
