ISSUE 1

MAXIMIZING THE RETURN ON DESIGN
Design’s value to business is becoming increasingly evident as companies find themselves competing in new and unfamiliar markets, looking for ways to create new offerings that are more valuable and compelling for customers, and harder for competitors to duplicate. In this issue of the Institute of Design Strategy Conference newsletter, we’ll examine the existing and emerging contexts in which design capabilities generate high value for the enterprise. We’ve gathered input from three speakers at the upcoming conference, who share their insight into generating greater customer value and economic value from the application of design.
