8th Annual Design Thinking Hawaii Bootcamp

The 8th Annual Design Thinking Hawaii Bootcamp will be held from Tue, July 17 at 7:30 AM – Wednesday, July 18 at 4:30 PM HST.

The ability to innovate faster – and in new ways – is critical to achieving high performance and surviving in a competitive world. This year’s Design Thinking Hawaii Summer Bootcamp will focus on building capacity for the implementation of Design Thinking – a human-centered, prototype-driven process for innovation that can be applied to products, services, and business design. The overall goal of the bootcamp is to change mindsets to sustain and accelerate innovation.

The Year 8 Edition of the Summer Bootcamp will feature a sponsored challenge facilitated by DTH staff. The theme of the workshop is “Sustainability,” and the challenge will be focused on, “How Might We develop a Green Economy industry in Hawaii?”

The ‘Design Thinking Hawaii Summer Bootcamps: Changing Mindsets’ will be a high-energy, experiential two-day learning experience. Participants will collaborate in small, multidisciplinary teams to solve a hands-on, customized innovation challenge. The workshop is built upon learning by doing and reflection – and participants learn the phases of the Design Thinking process as they tackle the challenge. The Hasso Plattner Institute of Design’s five-step process (empathy, define, ideate, prototype, feedback) will be used in the bootcamp. To learn more about Design Thinking, visit Oceanit’s DT page.
