The official Design Sprint Masterclass
We are thrilled to welcome Jake Knapp, one of the world’s most influential designers, to run the official Design Sprint workshop.
In this fun, fast-paced, hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the Design Sprint process directly from its creator. Jake will rapidly lead you through the process, teaching how the various steps fit together and why and how they work. You’ll get tips and tricks beyond the Sprint book, and you’ll learn how to incorporate these techniques into your company.
Over the course of a single day, Jake will lead the group through a compressed design sprint focused on a sample challenge. Jake will give your team a new way of looking at business challenges and the confidence to approach those challenges with renewed energy and optimism. You'll laugh. You'll high five. You'll learn ridiculously useful skills.
This is a Hybrid event which means that you can attend in-person in Lausanne Switzerland or Online
