Global Design Thinking Workshops (GDTW) are programs that go beyond the mere introduction to Design Thinking as a process. We have been creating this format as deep dives into the strategic questions of Design Thinking as a mindset and we are offering this course to HPI students and external participants. The next Global Design Thinking Workshop will take place in March 2024 in Potsdam.

In the following three-, and eight-week projects you investigate users, apply different brainstorming techniques, and create functional and human-centered prototypes. Apply now!
Since 2007 the HPI School of Design Thinking – HPI D-School for short – has offered supplementary programs in Design Thinking that are unique in Europe. Participants learn human-centered innovation processes and gain experience implementing them in actual projects. You can find the most important information at a glance in our flyer.
