Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at drs@curiousandcreativelab.ca if you cannot find an answer to your question.

What geographic areas do you serve for in-person programs?

Dr. Gupta delivers live, in-person keynotes, multi-week series, and facilitated workshops throughout the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), including Vaughan and Caledon, as well as Ottawa. Virtual and hybrid delivery options are available for organizations nationwide, from Vancouver to Halifax.

Are the programs customizable for different audiences?

Yes. While all programming is anchored in the same core pillars of neuroplasticity and cognitive health, every session is personalized. We specifically tailor the language, pacing, and practical exercises to match your specific portfolio—whether that means high-performance corporate workforces, active retirement residents, or local community networks.

How long is a typical keynote or workshop session?

Standalone interactive keynotes typically run for 45 to 60 minutes, perfect for corporate lunch & learns or community events. Immersive, hands-on workshops run from 60 to 90 minutes to allow ample time for interactive "NeuroPlay" exercises. Multi-week series are usually delivered in structured 45-minute weekly modules.

What is required from our organization to host a session?

We pride ourselves on delivering a fully managed, turnkey experience from design to impact. For in-person events, your venue simply needs to provide a screen and audio setup. For virtual sessions, we handle the digital logistics or integrate seamlessly with your preferred corporate platform (such as Zoom or Microsoft Teams).

How does pricing work for your programming?

Because we serve a diverse registry of corporate enterprises, non-profit networks, and residential calendars, pricing is customized based on your selected format, audience size, and delivery model (in-person vs. virtual). We excel at working within corporate wellness budgets and institutional programming grants. Contact us via our brief inquiry form, and our team will provide a tailored proposal within 1 business day.

Is this a dense academic lecture? My audience already faces high daily cognitive load.

Absolutely not. While every program is built on rigorous, evidence-based scientific foundations, Dr. Gupta's signature delivery style is designed to reduce cognitive fatigue, not increase it. We intentionally blend powerful creative storytelling, interactive play, and hands-on exercises. Your team or residents will not be sitting through a dry academic presentation—they will be actively engaging in an uplifting, high-energy experience.

Does Curious and Creative Lab work with organizations on an annual or retainer basis?

Yes. Many of our corporate workspace partners and senior living networks choose to book us on an annual or multi-season retainer. This secures preferred scheduling on our calendar, provides a consistent anchor for your wellness programming, and offers cost-efficiencies compared to individual, one-off bookings. We can design a customized annual roadmap during your discovery call.
