Disruption doesn’t only happen in Silicon Valley. It happens here in Pittsburgh and across every industry, sector, and business stage. At its core, the concept of designing for disruption is challenging yourself to become more relevant to your stakeholders tomorrow than you are today. To achieve this, entrepreneurs must find creative pathways to new ideas by questioning assumptions, pushing established boundaries, and testing self-imposed limits. Using human-centered design principles to build empathy with stakeholders will also help deliver your best work. In May, we’ll explore the design process and challenge you to think critically about how you can get ahead of the pace of change and deliver a product or service that people love.

Our virtual events and curated resources will help you:

• Understand the process of building a Minimum Viable Product (MVP)
• Differentiate between prototyping and pilot testing and learn how to implement both activities
• Acquire tools to design, collect, and analyze user feedback to improve your products and services
