And proud Design Sprint facilitation contributor to our innovation partner oneUp & clients:
What is Design Thinking?
In a nutshell, Design thinking is an approach to problem-solving that focuses on understanding user needs, generating creative ideas, and testing solutions through experimentation. It involves empathizing with users to gain insights, ideating to generate a range of possible solutions, and prototyping to refine and improve ideas. Ultimately, it aims to create innovative solutions that effectively address the challenges faced by users.
How it looks like in real life

The Design Sprint, is a 5-day process to create products, services and business concepts, through design, prototyping, and testing with your actual customers.
It combines strategy, innovation, UX, concept creation, design, lean development, design thinking and more.
By working together in a sprint, you can shortcut endless debate cycles and compress months of work into a single week. Instead of waiting to launch a minimal product to understand if an idea is any good. We’ll gather clear insights by testing the prototype with actual users or customers on the 5th day.
