Kansas City Service Jam
A Service Jam? What’s that?
The Global Service Jam is a simultaneous, world-wide, 48-hour event that’s all about DOING and MAKING.
In cities all over the world, people will be coming together for a fun weekend full of service design exploration, stretching their creative muscles, and collaborating with other awesome people from their area in order to design entirely new services that will improve people’s lives.A weekend-long workshop to develop new services; including brainstorming, researching, prototyping, and sharing.
After revealing the Jam’s secret theme on Friday night, we’ll break into teams and start working. The challenge is to identify and understand a real-world need, ideate and prototype concepts, and deliver a solution by Sunday afternoon.
This is a weekend for you to ask “Why?” like a kid, dream big, forget convention, and just make stuff.
Furthermore, you will:
Learn more about the service design-based approach to problems
Pick up a load of new ideas and work practices
Meet a bunch of cool people at all levels of experience
Share your work and ideas with your peers both locally and around the world
Have a blast!
