About This Session

In today’s challenging economy, innovation is as essential as it is difficult. Cultures capable of 'inventing the future’ are rare, but the emerging discipline of design thinking - honed by the celebrated innovation consultancy IDEO - provides people with the tools and techniques to think differently, see new opportunities, and create innovative solutions with impact. In this interactive session, try it out! Discover “How might we…?” through this human-centered approach to innovation to drive initiatives that meet human need, add business value and are technically feasible.
