Together we are going to build ideas to create a better future through design, while exercising our creative muscles and learning new skills. This event is part of a global movement, in which almost 200 cities around the world participate during the same weekend! We will connect with jammers around the world, to learn from each other and share ideas.
1. Why should you attend GSJam? You will lear
n design-based approaches to creative problem solving and gain hands-on experience, all while having fun. You will experience how a structured innovation process can produce robust, concrete and human-centered results, in just 48 hours.
2. Who can participate of GSJam? Everyone and anyone can join the jam! We encourage people from diverse backgrounds to join us and bring your unique point of view to the jam. You might be a student, teacher, entrepreneur, designer, developer, business person, community activist, non-profit professional, government employee, artist, architect, actor, hacker, maker, thinker or tinkerer. You don't have to be a “Designer” to jam =)
3. Can I attend just 1 day of the GSJam? Unfortunately not, as teams use the entire weekend to research, concept, prototype and test their ideas. We understand that people have other obligations, such as family and work, so arriving a bit late/leaving a bit early, or stepping out for a few hours, is ok. If you can't make the entire weekend, but want a taste of the jam, consider getting involved as a volunteer, we're gonna love it!
