CAMP
Week long camp

Course introductory webinar

WHAT IS ALL ABOUT?
We are glad to announce a new camp that we organize in one of the most dynamic cities in the world, Barcelona. We decided to make this camp about service design, as there is no better place to witness changes in services, urban planning, city structure, and the way the citizens and businesses adapt to it than Barcelona.
HOW WILL IT BE?
In our course, we will work with a real client case, immerse ourselves in business tasks, and solve them in practice. This will help you master the mechanisms of solving business tasks faster and more efficiently. Advice from curators, group classes with colleagues will help you create a community within the profession and gain knowledge and experience together with like-minded people.
FOR WHOM?
A service design campus focused on professionals in product development, service development, and design thinking.
