As designers, advanced technologists and business leaders, your survival depend on your ability to anticipate and adapt to rapidly changing environments. How do you make sense of the emerging trends, stay ahead of the curve, recognize opportunities before they become obvious, and create "the next big thing” with long-term and human-centered perspectives?

In this workshop, Ming-Li Chai will share a mindset and a toolset to help you factor in the future when you create design strategies today. She will walk you through key steps of the “fuzzy front end” of the long range innovation process.
