Webinar Agenda
So what's all the buzz around Design Sprints - and what did the inventor of Sprints, Jake Knapp, tell me over breakfast in SF one day in 2019?
The Design Sprint allows organizations to create a repeatable and robust Innovation program, because it enfolds years of learning and experience in Design Thinking, group problem-solving and alignment, challenge-mapping, prototyping, and testing with real clients - and all of this in only 5 days.
- 11:00-12:00 - Intro to Design Sprints and Uncertainty
- 12:00-13:00 - Experiencing the Sprint
WHAT'S A DESIGN SPRINT?
The tech and design worlds are all abuzz again: it started with agile development, then the Lean Startup revolution, and now: Design Sprints. Developed and polished at Google and Google Ventures across 150+ projects, and practiced at Airbnb, Lego, Facebook, Netflix, Slack, and large consulting shops like IDEO, EY, McKinsey, and Deloitte - Design Sprints are a recipe for a design hackathon, which is guaranteed to produce a realistic prototype and user feedback in just 5 days.
