About this event
**Space for this event is limited and we appreciate if you sign up only if you are able to attend the workshop**
We are partnering this time with Motius to bring you this interactive lab!
The Design Thinking approach usually starts with a blank sheet of paper. The first two phases are aimed at understanding the end-user. But what if we want or have to use a certain technology? Or what if we want to create innovative new features with a certain technology?
In this hands-on Lab, led by Motius, you will learn how to use tools from the Design Thinking approach in a Tech Track.
During the workshop, you will understand the connection between technological influences on the Design Thinking process and learn practical applications of some selected methods and tools through hands-on exercises.
The workshop will start with tech research (prepared by Motius). Then we will let these insights flow into the ideation phase of the Design Thinking process. In this step, you will learn some methods from the ideation toolbox. Afterward, you will be able to develop a simple prototype and test it within the workshop.
About the Speaker:
Daniel Blank works as Design Thinker at Motius and has over 5 years of experience driving and facilitating Ideation Workshops, creating Software & Hardware prototypes and testing them in interviews. Daniel also works as a trainer for the Google Digital Garage, where he teaches methods and processes from Rapid Prototyping, Agile and Design Thinking. He also uses his know-how in his sidekick business, in which he develops and sells special equipment for mountain bikers. In all his activities, it is clear how much Daniel takes the user-centric approach into account. It is important to him that the participants of the workshops also internalize this mindset.
