Jamming-Weekend at the AXIS Coworking Loft

Same place next year: Last weekend saw the second edition of the Global Service Design Jam, with Netural at the AXIS Coworking Loft Linz as one of 100 venues around the planet.

Held from February 27th till March 1st, the Jam promoted the sustainable, user-centered development of digital and analog smart services. Spreading the philosophy of design thinking, the Jam provides handy tools for practical work like, e.g., latest brainstorming methods, contextual interview techniques, persona creation, user journey mapping and stakeholder map sketching.

“Doing, not talking” is the Jam´s credo. Three workdays produce a testable service idea prototype, including valuable learnings from the first iterative steps towards testing and refining.

The Friday evening kickoff consisted of a video defining the group task, with work starting immediately. 28 participants spit into five groups to work their way through several project steps. On Sunday afternoon, all ideas were presented and subsequently published on the global Service Design Jam website.
