"Innovation:Lab" offers participants an opportunity to learn how to solve complex problems and foster an innovation culture within their own organizations. As a participant in the Innovation Lab, you'll have the chance to innovate and unleash your creativity during a two-hour team-based workshop.

At the Lab, you will get your creative juices flowing through a user-centered, prototype-driven design process that will empower you to collaborate across disciplines and tackle the world’s biggest challenges. The Innovation:Lab was created by Dr. Frederik G. Pferdt - Global Program Manager for Innovation and Creativity @ Google.

Dr. Pferdt also facilitates these Labs -- learn more about him.

During this two hour workshop, you'll get your hands dirty and realize that you too have an inner designer! Whether you’re a CEO, team lead, user experience designer, entrepreneur, student or anything in between, you’ll walk away with tangible solutions to real challenges. You'll also learn valuable tools and techniques, as well as how to adopt a mindset that will help you to drive innovation in your organization.
