It’s time to meet in person for EQ Tek Tech Talks on our workshop:
Introduction to design thinking
Learn to think like a designer
Everyone is creative. Faced with a simple innovation challenge, you have a chance to start with empathy, create new ideas, and then build solutions, all within about 60 minutes. The exercise uses a simple object that most people carry with them as a prop to discover needs, design and build a prototype, and get user feedback. Participants pair up, show, and tell each other about their wallets, ideate, and make a new solution that is "useful and meaningful" to their partner. It gives everyone a chance to cycle quickly through the human-centereddesign process.
Join our free EQ Tek Tech Talks and let’s collaborate together.
Complimentary drinks (coffee, tea, beer) & pizza will be served.
