Design Thinking is often considered to be the holy grail of Innovation. Einne Curran led a great session on the topic for our Impact Series on Tuesday. Here are our key takeaways: Empathy – are we putting enough focus on all human needs (not just our own)? Collaboration is good, diverse collaboration is great! Prototyping is the most efficient way to test your solution. We’d love to hear your thoughts below! This years Impact Series is part of an European Commission funded project INNOV-8-2-CREATE, in collaboration with Rīgas Tehniskā universitāte (Riga Technical University) Università degli Studi di Torino and ASTP.

Call for papers https://lnkd.in/gust_jHY "Special issue information: Motivation for Special Issue - This special issue (SI) will examine how innovation ecosystems can contribute to a more sustainable world in times of dramatic change. Global warming, pandemics and wars are dramatically transforming the context in which people and organizations operate. These external shocks are creating the condition for the start of a deglobalization process. Deglobalization implies a decline in global flows of people, trades, and investments which inevitably affects that same collaborative and systemic efforts at the very core of innovation ecosystems (Granstrand and Holgersson; 2020; Nylund et al., 2022). Dramatic changes are introduced also by an unprecedented technological progress such as the emergence of “deep tech” innovation. Deep tech innovation aims to provide concrete solutions to our societal problems by finding its source in deep interaction with the most recent scientific and technological advances..." read & learn more

🌟 Exciting Call for Papers in Technovation! 🌟 I'm thrilled to share this call for papers on “Enhancing innovation ecosystems for a sustainable world in times of dramatic change.” This topic couldn't be more relevant in our rapidly evolving world, where technology, strategy, and sustainability intersect.

This programme is the future of education: global thinking applied locally with an international cohort. 🙌

Our winterschool at Københavns Universitet - University of Copenhagen is in full swing, and we have been engaging in discussions, explorations and conversations around the progress of our research on re-thinking design, of Al, of interfaces, for a new digital society. #WeAreDCODE #rethinkdesign #H2020 #MSCA #researchimpacteu #design #designresearch #responsibleinnovation #responsibletech #designcompetence #digitalfutures #humancomputerinteraction #ethicalai

Unleashing Creativity: Environment-Based Design for Smarter Decision-Making The design process is often described as a complex, non-linear journey with countless potential solutions. But with this vastness comes a challenge: information overload. Jiami Yang; Yixuan Dou; and Yong Zeng from Concordia University and University of Calgary explore Environment-based Design (EBD) as a methodology to help designers navigate this complexity and unleash their creativity (ICED 23 Proceedings). https://lnkd.in/gSxYWSg5    Join the "Design is a Team Sport" movement at ICED25 Dallas. How can design methodologies be adapted to better support different learning styles and levels of experience? What role can technology play in facilitating information search and knowledge acquisition during the design process? Share your thoughts on the future of design education and the importance of fostering creativity in designers! Don't miss out!   · Register for ICED25 Dallas: iced.designsociety.org/  The University of Texas at Dallas, The Design Society #DesignThinking #Creativity #EBD #KnowledgeManagement #DesignEducation #AerospaceDesign

👉 Practice-based research involves making as part of the research process. It emphasizes the act of creation as a fundamental part of the research process itself rather than merely a means to an end. In design, design thinking, and design strategy, we often discuss tools or methods, such as prototypes or design sprints, as ways to find answers. We make paper prototypes to get user feedback before we invest further. We create design concepts to gain consensus, solicit buy-in, and get direction. We do design sprints to generate new ideas and to create new concepts that solve problems. ▶ What if design thinkers are really design researchers? And what if the work we do is design research? ❓ Would it change anything about how we approach, execute, or talk about the work if we thought about it that way? If we begin to consider our work design research, how might this impact how we use and build upon the work in the future? 👉 Read more, as well as learn about the Practice Research Symposium Nora Guerrera was part if in NYC, in partnership with RMIT University and Parsons School of Design - The New School-https://lnkd.in/gPkpuFjf #design #practicebasedresearch #parsons #designthinking #leadership #learning

🔵 What role is design research playing in the re-humanization of digital manufacturing? Massimo Menichinelli, Elisava Research Director, with Luca D'Elia (Sapienza Università di Roma), Silvia D'Ambrosio (Politecnico di Milano) and Carla Sedini (Politecnico di Milano) worked on a paper for DRS2024 Boston on a model and impact index for assessing maker laboratories as Proximity-based Making and Community Services within the 15 Minute City framework by Carlos Moreno, studying how design can support the integration of bottom-up and top-down urban creative making services in city governance for promoting distributed systems.

#PolyUDesign_KnowledgeTransfer What does the future hold for design? How can the design industry overcome future challenges and adapt? The "Global Research in Design Innovation" Exhibition and Forum by The Hong Kong Polytechnic University School of Design brings together academic leaders to discuss shaping the future of design, exploring innovative design's impact on industries and society, and revolutionising industries with new approaches in the recent AI boom. The power of design to shape behaviour, improve quality of life, and address societal issues is significant. Design interventions lead to a more inclusive, accessible, and sustainable future. Register now and share your insights on the topics at the Forum!
