Dec 14th: Discovery Foundation's Tech 4 Impact & Inclusion Design Jam: Innovating for a Sustainable Future.

Innovating for a Sustainable Future

Presented by the Chang Institute for Entrepreneurship as an agent of Discovery Foundation,

In this workshop, we rethink traditional methods of innovation and show you a systematic way to generate creative ideas—or conceive new and exciting ideas—on demand!

Innovation without Drama. Purposeful. Systematic. Creative.

Although the methods and skills you’ll learn in this design jam can be applied to any problem, we'll focus on ideating sustainable solutions for the fashion, textile, and related industries from cradle to cradle, where materials travel through continuous cycles of use and reuse.

From bike-share programs to online paperless banking, innovations are changing how we shop, commute, learn, access entertainment, and connect with others. Sometimes overnight, these big shifts have had local, regional, even global reach.

So, what big shifts are required as we now set out to design a more sustainable future?

Perhaps the biggest is to rethink our traditional understanding of creativity as unstructured and lacking rules or patterns, which forces you to wait for inspiration, the muse to descend, or some unusual spark of brilliance before you can begin.

But unless you’ve had your head in the sand for the last few years, you know there’s no time to waste! Click here to register.
