Research, Synthesis, Ideation & Prototyping

Teams will start the morning with some breakfast and a short session on research tips, then it's out the door and into the field for some research. Your team will use what you learn from your research to help guide you throughout the day. You’ll be ideating, mapping, visualizing, prototyping, and getting feedback. Teams will be supported throughout the day by a team of expert mentors and speakers, who will help guide you through the creation of your new services. Expect a high-energy, fun-filled, jam-packed day.

More Prototyping, Show-Don't-Tell, Celebration

It’s a race to the finish as your team continues to iterate and prototype your service concept, based on mentor feedback & user validation! How far can you push your concept? How real can you make your prototype? Teams will upload their final prototypes at 3pm and show their concepts to the group. Then we’ll wrap up and celebrate!
