Service Design in Minneapolis-St. Paul is very active among large corporations, smaller design agencies, and embedded within health care systems and the public sector.
Our theme for our first meeting is connections. Our goal of our first meeting is to connect service designers in the Cities who haven’t before and to gather feedback about what people hope to get out of future meetings and our chapter.
• Build a strong network of all the service designers in the Cities that would not otherwise connect.
• Hold events that dig deep into case studies, provide advice, and critique each other’s work.
• Identify needs in the community and offer service design support.
