I’ve been a visiting professor at the Royal College of Art since 2008, Innovation Design Engineering Department, and collaborating in various tasks, such as tutoring 1st and 2nd years on Innovation projects from a business approach.
I have also co-created educational modules in collaboration with companies and other academic institutions for visionary thinking purposes.
I complement my activity at the RCA by lecturing on innovation-related expertise, such as how to set up the practice of Design Strategy on a corporation and how to create a vision for a new industry field.
"How to become a design strategist" lecture on establishing and nurturing a Creative Strategy competence within corporations
