Design Sprint Academy

Our approach

Hands-on and task focused

When we talk about training, we believe in learning by doing and in tangible results. Because we have a background in building and launching software products, our approach is less theoretical and more practical.
We teach and train globally

From Berlin to NYC, Chicago, Amsterdam, Oslo, Helsinki. We traveled the world to teach product people all the tools and techniques for preparing and running successful design sprints in 1-day or 2-days intensive workshops.
