These casual events will be moving to an online format until further notice … and breakfasts will be BYOC – ‘Bring your own coffee’.
The goal is to learn from each other. The format will evolve as we learn, together, what might be most valuable (and enjoyable!) to us all. Breakfasts will include both time to mingle and one or two quick activities to foster knowledge-sharing or community-building.
The DT breakfasts are open to all. No DT experience is required.
Come with an open heart and mind and prepare to learn and share with others in the local, regional, and international DT community.
Please invite anyone who would enjoy both sharing with and learning from other practitioners and educators in the greater New Orleans area, the Gulf South, and connecting with other people in the local, regional and international design thinking community.
When: One Friday each month.
Cost: Free
