We will welcome Mr. Takahiro Iijima, a San Francisco Bay Area based product designer, for an idea generation workshop. Since the facilitator lives overseas, the instructor has been conducting the workshop online, but this time, the timing of the workshop coincided with Mr. Iijima’s visit to Japan, so we are having this workshop fully in-person.
The workshop theme is “New Combination,” in which participants will consider what kind of business development would be possible if an existing well-known company were to expand into a new field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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 during the workshop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
