Summary
In the current era of digital and a use-oriented economy, companies now consider that taking into account user experiences ids of major importance for innovation. In such a context, the use of Design Thinking offers a pragmatic vision of innovation through the identification of new use cases. In a concrete way, Design Thinking gives the possibility to start from an empathic exploration of users to propose tangible solutions after successive iterations. In addition, Entrepreneurship is a strong societal trend. On the one hand, the economic and social environment increasingly encourages people to be entrepreneurial and to create their own business. And on the other hand, a growing number of people (young graduates and executives in particular) aspire to it and wish to engage in this entrepreneurial process. Moreover, entrepreneurial skills are increasingly valued in companies and sought by recruiters. We also speak of intrapreneurs for employees who create their own business or launch new ones within their own company. This can possibly be done via internal incubators or start-up studios.
