Therefore Microgiants created a network of individuals, professionals and companies to work together for better design solutions. For Microgiants design is an inclusive approach in research, design and development of new products, information and services.
For Microgiants the major societal challenges should be addressed by “human-centred / user-oriented” innovation, which relies on the wider understanding and implementation of both the ‘Design Thinking’ process and ‘Design Innovation’ concept, in order to improve the capabilities of Companies, SME’s, Organisations and Public Services to create new opportunities based on the comprehension that design is a fully acknowledged element of innovation.
This special design approach is reflected in the structure and the methodologies of Microgiants. Microgiants is build around the main business-fields like a design studio, an agency and a consulting group. In this trisection of organisation each managing partner and member of Microgiants is carefully selected to complete the demands of clients by his or her individual skill set. In the resent years the company Microgiants has successfully completed several projects on big and on a smaller scale.
