Rapid Innovation: Mastering Idea Validation with Paper

Join us for a hands-on event for anyone eager to refine their ideas rapidly and effectively. No prior experience in design needed! This session will cover a brief introduction to the fundamentals of paper prototyping, a low-fidelity approach that empowers quick iterations and immediate feedback. Participants will learn how to transform their initial sketches into paper prototypes, enabling them to visualize and test their concepts with minimal resources.

Preparation

• Ensure a stable internet connection for Zoom.
• Familiarize yourself with FigJam for interactive activities.
• Have a notepad or digital document ready for personal notes.
• A few sheets of blank paper (printer paper will work!)
• A sharpie or large marker, preferably black
• Everyone is welcome and no prior experience is needed!
