SUMMARY:Free Keynote: The Future of Industrial Design Innovation
DESCRIPTION:The world has no shortage of complex problems that must be addressed. The design industry needs a radical new design approach that goes far beyond the original design thinking methodology. It needs a sustainable\, purpose-driven design culture rather than relying on a theatrical and ad-hoc design process that involves cozy design meetings with sticky notes and fun design tools. Tech companies and design firms need a purpose-driven design culture that prioritizes profitability and aims to positively impact society. \nPrior registration required via tpsi@live.com | Phone/WhatsApp: +13053992116  \n
