Facilitate design-driven innovation with DOGA

Design is increasingly recognized as a key driver of purposeful and risk-reducing innovation. We know that individuals unfamiliar with this approach often require additional knowledge and support to confidently integrate design in the early stages of innovation. To address this, DOGA offers programs and tools designed to meet these needs. For those working in the design industry, familiarity with these resources can help leverage impact and potentially unlock greater business opportunities.
– Did you know for example that DOGA offers tools and resources that designers may use to facilitate a design-driven innovation process?

At our September IxDA meetup, we are pleased to welcome Marianne Lind from DOGA (Design and Architecture Norway). This session aims to familiarize designers in the Stavanger region with the tools and programs offered by DOGA, which can enhance collaborations with clients and business partners.

DOGA’s Designdriven Innovation Program (DIP) and advanced courses are crafted to support designers in applying design-driven innovation across various sectors. Marianne will share how these resources can help refine your practice and add value to the businesses you engage with.
