Design Thinking Dash

This is a fast, fun, and concise introduction to Design Thinking. A team of experienced Design Thinkers will coach you through the design thinking process. Design Thinking Dash is a once-off teaser experience that will give you a practical understanding of how design thinking can be implemented.

  • Importance of human-centred design and to experience the value of this mindset
  • Why working in teams that are diverse and multidisciplinary are crucial to solving problems and unlocking innovation
