On June 22, 2016, the University Innovation Fellows program and Google’s Creative Skills for Innovation Labs hosted a partner event of the Global Entrepreneurship Summit. This high-energy workshop was held at the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design (d.school) and helped participants practice skills and mindsets fueling Silicon Valley’s entrepreneurs and discover key elements to build a culture of innovation at any organization. Participants learned how to tackle moonshots, generate “10x ideas,” and use current spaces and resources to foster creative collaboration.
