A conversation between GK VanPatter and David Kelley (Co-Founder of the Stanford Design Institute) – “(…) businesses today are looking for ways to become more innovative. Corporations are expecting that revenues will come primarily from new innovations, rather than simply sprucing up existing products and services. What we’ve learned from companies is that they’re looking for students to be able to come out and help them with their innovation strategy. Our goal at the d.school is to train students to be innovators.” (NextD Journal 7.3)
