What do I experience during the 4-day internship programme?

The internship is designed as a real-case product and service development simulation program, where participants will assume the role of real consultants at Designventure Consultancy. Their clients will seek assistance from participants in designing products and services tailored to their customer's needs and preferences.

With the assistance of our experienced facilitators, participants will have a chance to conduct product and service design with the use of the Design Thinking method to enhance consumer experiences and Behavioural Science to promote the product and services to potential consumers.
Participants will also have the privilege of receiving one-on-one mentoring from our experienced mentor, who will communicate their needs and provide motivation to maximize their potential during the workshop.

Get to know more about who we are from our website.

What are the expected outcomes?
Our activities are designed not only to give them an insight into what it is like working in a rapidly changing industry and responding to environmental and social needs but also to empower them and build their confidence for career success.


What will the participant gain on successful completion?
Upon successful completion of the programme, participants will be awarded a certificate of attendance. This certificate serves as recognition of their commitment and achievement throughout the program.

Who will be eligible for the event?
The workshops are for students aged 15 to 18. No prior knowledge or experience is required.
