Insights

Upcoming research talks at the Design Factory: Mikko Illi on better sales processes on 9.4. and Antti Surma-aho on developing empathy and innovation attitudes through project-based courses on 23.4. Come and ask us some good questions!

This Spring, we’re piloting a bi-weekly research session to share soon-to-be-submitted work from the Design Factory research community, with the audience learning of interesting new results and the presenter benefitting from good questions to clarify their thinking and fine tune their work. You can expect a 10-15 min presentation, followed by a 15-20 min discussion, and something sweet to go around. The insights are served in the ADF Kafis to encourage easy drop-by listening – please feel free to join us if the topic of the week interests you… or even if you just like to enjoy your lunch with an extra dose of inspiration!
