Four students experienced a week-long intensive Mindstate Ideation Sprint in San Francisco, led by Tamar Many, Head of the Visual Communication Ideation Hub.
The theme of this journey focused on addressing the global challenge of natural disasters through collaborative design and innovation.
Throughout the week, our students worked alongside peers from UDEM University and Cornell Tech, engaging in a cross-cultural exchange of ideas.
The trip provided unique access to the worldโs leading innovation centers, including visits to top tech companies, SRI International, and the Stanford d.school. After days of brainstorming and development, the sprint concluded with a high-stakes session where students presented their final projects and startup concepts to a panel of industry professionals. It was a remarkable bridge between academic theory and real-world impact.
