This discussion was sparked by a question: "ideas for a short (e.g. 45min) brown bag lunch type session, aiming to share information about a particular piece of work ongoing within a large (newly formed) team,in a way that encourages discussion and thought about potential internal synergies, during the lunch break."
* Called ‘Brown Bag’ because people often bring their food in one, the term refers to informal discussions around a topic (eg ongoing research, first ideas for a project) at lunch time, with lunch brought (or sometimes provided). In an organization, some lunchtime meetings are catered, while in others you're expected to bring your own lunch. For organizers, a nice way to set the expectation that no lunch will be served is to call it a 'brown bag'. That way, participants will bring their own. The equivalent in South Asia might be a 'tiffin box' lunch!).
