Design Thinking is a framework for innovation that can unlock business value. It is a creative problem-solving method that begins with understanding people’s unmet needs, then exploring and prototyping solutions to create innovative products, services, processes and business across any sector (public, private and social). It has been used by many organizations to minimize risks of innovation, create a user-centric strategy, design better solutions, reduce costs of innovation and delight customers.

Design Thinking has revolutionised the business and creative worlds by helping people bridge the gap between business feasibility, viability and user desirability.

Ricardo Ruffo, cofounder and CEO at Echos Innovation Lab

The Design Thinking Online is your passport to innovation

This course aims to increase the creative and innovation potential of people, teams and organisations. We do this through a structured, human-centred approach to innovation that teaches not only the skills and tools needed, but also a new mindset to help you approach challenges from a holistic and human perspective.
what you’ll learn
Throughout this course, you will run through a complete innovation project across every stage: from searching for customer needs and insights, generating ideas and testing solutions with real users by using prototypes. Our course revolves around a practical project in which you’ll apply the Design Thinking tools and approaches. At the end of this course you will be able to:
Better understand how to properly use Design Thinking methods to innovate and create real value to your customers or users;
Use creativity techniques to generate solutions that are innovative and centered on what your customers or users value;
