    B – Interactive Discussion with audience  

     

    The audience will break out into groups to focus on each of the PDW questions and to share their own research interests related to the PDW topic. Then the facilitators will report their conclusions to the broader audience at the end of the discussion.

    Open questions:

    (i)     What is the role of design in innovation management? What is the difference between design-based innovation and technological-based innovation and market-pull innovation respectively?

    (ii)   What is the role of design firms/consultancies in the development process?

    (iii) What are the specificities of design in service innovation?

    (iv) What are the domains of application of design-based innovation?

     

     

    Best regards,

    Celine, Sihem and Ileana
