Design Thinking Workshop: 2^nd of October, 09:30-16:00, Student Project House (ETH Zentrum campus)
The goal of the workshop is to allow participants to discuss their first ideas and to receive feedback in order to investigate their solution further. A design thinking approach led by a professional will help participants develop ideas by changing perspectives and thinking out of the box. Activities like mind mapping, out-of-the-box thinking exercises, and idea shaping will be presented. The goal is to understand the process to follow during Energy Now! 3.0 to address the challenges. The expected outcome of the event is a work plan that the teams will propose to the respective mentors.

During the event, breakfast and lunch will be served :)
