For all the people, across the board, who want to step out of their normal work for 24 hours and get things done that they needs‘ but haven’t had time for. The best results will be obtained when participation is voluntary, with participants being able to form their own teams and choosing what they want to work on.

What will we do?

Before the event, we will set the format start the communication.

The event itself is best started with a half-day introductory training session, where participants will learn the basics of Design Thinking as a method for innovation. After that, participants will be given 24 hours to work .
Afterwards, the teams have a short presentation in front of the company’s management, where they show their prototype or finished solution. The management selects the winning team, which usually receives a prize.
