Design Thinking Workshop

Designing digital services in the IoT

In our design thinking workshop, you will develop digital services that meet the needs of your end customers and are technically and economically feasible. With a focus on user centricity, we work together to develop practical use cases and prototypes. You will learn how to assess the business value of your ideas and create a concrete roadmap for implementation.

Objective: Development of innovative, user-centered digital services based on IoT data – e.g. predictive maintenance, pay-per-use models or digital twins.

The purpose of our workshops is to create a common understanding of the requirements and thus structure the solution. This is the basis for successful projects. Furthermore, our participants benefit from the methods used and the structured approach, which has a positive effect on the project results.
