Design Thinking is a human centered and collaborative approach to solve complex problems, an iterative process composed from the next main stages: Understand, Empathize, Define the Point of View, Ideate, Prototype, Test.

Access the “Design Thinking: Methodology, Toolset, Mindset” explainer resource here.

Today we invite you to come along a team of Design Thinkers and learn together with them!

Mihai Svasta & Alexandra Gruicin will work two days with you on several specific topics. You will learn Design Thinking experiencing it, led by people who really implemented Design Thinking and Innovation projects at companies in Europe.

Mihai defines himself as innovator, since childhood. Therefore working with other innovators and supporting them appeared naturally. His theoretical background on Design Thinking was supported by IDEO programs which awarded him diploma Foundation of Design Thinking.

He had the opportunity to get in direct contact and work together with IDEO Studios from Palo Alto and San Francisco, with Frog Design and Google Rapid Roll-out Lab getting familiar with their innovation methodologies in real projects.

What are you going to learn?

  • The Design Thinking philosophy and process
  • Tools on each of the Design Thinking steps
  • Tips and tricks from the practice

You will develop solutions together with us. This is not a training, it is a workshop where we will apply DT at a real topic and together, in a team, we will develop prototypes.

All methodologies and tools applied are in line with IDEO, Hasso Plattner Institute and d.school of Design Thinking from Stanford.
