HOW ARE THE ROLES OF DESIGNERS CHANGING, AS THEY OFTEN NO LONGER PROVIDE A SERVICE TO ONE ORGANIZATION, BUT RATHER COLLABORATE IN OPEN AND NETWORKED INNOVATION CONSORTIA? AND WHAT DOES THE INCREASINGLY STRATEGIC CONTRIBUTION OF DESIGN TO INNOVATION MEAN FOR THE PRODUCT-SERVICE OFFERING OF ORGANIZATIONS?
Keynote speakers
