Who should attend?
The SkwX-workshop leverages different perspectives to create design-concepts and to visualise those concepts in a short time. Participants from all backgrounds are encouraged to participate. Technological solutions need sociological perspectives to enable change. Sociological challenges can be answered using technology. The best solutions are created when we dare to step outside the familiar and when we cross knowledge-borders.
What will you learn?
SkwX was created to bridge the gaps between organisations within HHK (Hudiksvall’s Hydraulics Cluster) and it has been used successfully in research projects to generate blueprints and concepts for further study. It has also generated a number of patents and start-ups within industry. We work under time constraints to remove creative blocks. We emphasize quantity and use group iteration to achieve quality. This is a workshop that creates shared knowledge and understanding and is a way to quickly generate ideas that are visually communicated.
