Product Design For Startups @ MakePhilly This Week
The creative folks at MakePhilly are only having one meeting this Fall, and they’re looking to make it count.
Interested in product design and design thinking in the context of a startup? I’m looking at you, Technically Philly. Well, the next MakePhilly meeting plans to cover just that, with a special appearance by Peter Bressler. An award winning designer and the former President of the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA), he’s kind of a big deal. In a “many leather bound books” sort of way.
His talk, entitled Product Design in Entrepreneurial Ventures, will… well, here’s what MakePhilly has to say about it:
Peter Bressler, the founder and leader of the award winning design firm Bresslergroup will be giving a talk entitled Product Design in Entrepreneurial Ventures in which he will explore the following questions: What is the value of design to an entrepreneur? How should an entrepreneur use design? Can an entrepreneur afford design? In the process he will share experiences and case studies from his over 30 years of design experience spanning the consumer, medical, and industrial spaces. Peter’s expertise includes user research, human factors application, manufacturing processes and innovative criteria conflict resolution.
The meeting takes place this Thursday, November 11th, and kicks off at 7pm sharp. And as always, the event is free. Be there!
