Join us for a free, once-off and exclusive masterclass exploring how Design Thinking can help shape a more sustainable and innovative future for the creative industries.
While the creative economy is a powerful driver of innovation, entrepreneurship, and economic growth, many creative practitioners continue to face challenges such as limited market access, fragmented support systems, and unsustainable business models.
Through the five stages of Design Thinking and real-world examples from Johannesburg’s creative economy, this session will explore how empathy, collaboration, systems thinking, and innovation can help creatives move beyond great ideas to designing solutions that are desirable, feasible, and viable.
Whether you’re a designer, filmmaker, entrepreneur, artist, performer, or aspiring creative professional, this masterclass will provide practical insights into building resilient creative enterprises and creating meaningful impact within the creative economy.
Don’t miss this opportunity to rethink the future of the creative industries and discover how design can become a catalyst for lasting change.
