Briefly about the design sprint
Design sprint is a method that in a short time leads to the validation of an idea — whether it is a new product, service or strategy. This approach involves an intensive, time-limited process for participants going through various steps to identify, define, develop and test innovative solutions.
Design sprint was first developed by Google Ventures, and it has since been used by companies around the world, to speed up product development, improve user experiences and come up with innovative ideas.
The goal of a design sprint is to drive innovation and/or development with the lowest possible risk, without wasting time and resources. No endless discussions, but all participants get an equally clear voice in the process.
What will you learn in the course?
During the two days of the course, you will learn how to manage a challenge using the design sprint method.
You will be introduced to basic principles of design, creative techniques of idea generation, prototyping and user testing. Through practical exercises, you will gain hands-on experience leading and participating in a design sprint team.
