THE VALUE OF DESIGN THINKING

  • The ability to shift fous from purely being business or technology oriented, to focus on the value created for the end user. It can be hard to see beyond corporate customer and understand the needs and challenges of their employees.
  • To tell and sell a story. Articulating the value proposition, storyboarding the user experience and creating an elevvator pitch to sell ideas are all essential parts of what a startup needs to do. Striking the balance between developing the product itself, and iterating on your value proposition is key to succeed with investors and potential partners.
  • This is how Design Thinking is a great accelerator for entrepreneurship.

AGENDA

  • Introduction to design thinking process and frameworks
  • Teamwork to understand challenges, identify target users and their needs.
