We will welcome Mr. Takahiro Iijima, a product designer based in the San Francisco Bay Area, for an idea generation workshop. Since the facilitator lives overseas, we are having this workshop online.
In this workshop, participants will analyze hospital work environments and propose new services utilizing AI. The session will cover tools like customer journey mapping and analogy-based ideation techniques. Additionally, tips on effectively using generative AI for brainstorming will be shared.
This workshop is designed to allow participants to enjoy expanding their ideas while getting feedback from Iijima-san from a product designer’s point of view.
