1. HEAR
Design Café
New to Design Thinking? Hear all about it!
This informative talk is a 1.5-hour session on how Design Thinking can be applied in a corporate setting. It covers the basics of the creative methodology that increases creativity, innovation, and problem-solving skills in a team. The Design Café comprises a dynamic talk followed by a hands-on experiment that exposes the audience to the power of Design Thinking. Handouts are included, and a Q&A wraps up this activity. We recommend a venue allowing for classroom-style seating.
2. DO
Design Sprints
Ready to do design? Let's Sprint! This Design Sprint is a 2-4-day experience of interactive workshops modelled based on the Double Diamond method. The participants are matched into diverse small teams (4-5 participants), and all the teams work on the designated challenge relevant to their business. First, the participants seek to understand and develop a problem statement. The process then proceeds to ideating and conceptualising a solution as well as validating it with end-users or other stakeholders. Participants learn about user understanding, customer grouping, brainstorming, quick prototyping, and what an iterative design process looks like in practice. The experience wraps up with a brief training on public speaking as team members pitch their final solutions. This workshop works well with enhancing communication and teamwork skills.
3. LEARN
Design Thinking Basics
Keen to learn how to use Design Thinking at work? Let's learn by doing!
This unique training opportunity builds on the practical understanding of the design thinking methodology, its tools, and best practices with theoretical knowledge. The training covers the fundamentals of design thinking and shines a light on where and how to use the various methods. The duration of the training is over four days, starting with problem identification, understanding the user, and ideating a solution by using multiple methods for problem analysis, ideation, validation, prototyping, and testing. Similarly to phase 2 DO, the participants are divided into small groups with a versatile skill set, and the challenge can be developed with the customer.
4. APPLY
Innovation Consultancy
Rome wasn’t built in a day - and it is not feasible to expect that newly adopted skills are immediately put into practice independently after just a couple of training days. The month of Innovation Consultancy aims to provide support to the trained facilitators in applying the methodologies to everyday situations.
Its objective is to further equip team members with the needed understanding, knowledge and skills to foster a culture of innovation in their teams over regular Design Thinking sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Feeling Curious?
How much do these services cost?
Co-creation is when businesses include outsiders in the ideation and development process. Most companies keep new products and processes strictly internal; some even work hard to keep them secret. But co-creation lets companies collaborate outside the business to gather fresh ideas and break from their own status quo. They acknowledge that they don’t have all the answers in-house, and they make it easy for others to bring the answers to them. The goal is to approach issues from a new perspective and come away with better products, services and processes. And while most businesses will feel more comfortable working with current customers, there may be more opportunities available elsewhere.
What is Design Thinking?
Design Thinking is a non-linear, iterative process that teams use to understand users, challenge assumptions, redefine problems and create innovative solutions to prototype fast and test. Involving five phases – Empathise, Define, Ideate, Prototype and Test–it is most useful to tackle problems that are ill-defined and unknown. Design Thinking isn't just a concept; it's a transformative journey that ignites creativity and fosters innovation. Join us and uncover your innovation potential.
What is Human-Centred Design?
Human-centred design is a problem-solving technique that puts real people at the centre of the development process, enabling you to create products and services that resonate and are tailored to your audience’s needs. The goal is to keep users’ wants, pain points, and preferences front of mind during every phase of the process. In turn, you’ll build more intuitive, accessible products that are likely to turn a higher profit because your customers have already vetted the solution and feel more invested in using it.
