Why are so many African mini-busses in such a poor condition, uncomfortable and unsafe? They are an amazing solution to a lack of public transport, ferrying commuters in and between virtually every village, town, and city on the continent, yet so many are in an terrible condition. With a team of graduate students from Bocconi University in Milan, we set out to investigate this. Ke Ya Rona empowers taxi drivers to become vehicle owners.
How can we make the transition to more sustainable urban mobility? Examples on concrete solutions from around the world - from SUSTAINIA's publications: Global Opportunity Report, SUSTAINIA100 and CITIES100.
Service Design for networked business models - Presentation at Design Confere...Claro Partners Inc.
With increased connectivity, networks at both a global and local level are growing rapidly whilst new communities can develop and flourish through digital channels. These allow for resources to be shared, swapped, borrowed and traded; bearing a new economy that favours access over ownership.
This is a dramatically different user experience context that demands a transformation of our approach to service design. In this session we will share findings from our global research that explored the experiences and opportunities involved in moving from an ownership economy to one built on access and sharing. In this presentation we present guidelines for creating value exchange networks and share some tools we’ve developed for creating networked services and business models in the sharing economy.

How Does One Become a Tech Journalist?" by Lucie Ronfaut, Tech Journalist @FigaroTech
Abstract : How does one become a journalist? How does a newsroom work? How can someone who doesn't code write articles about tech companies? Lucie Ronfaut will talk about the clichés and truths of being a very-much tech driven journalist in 2018, and how tech stories always have a human side, starting with "la Menstrutech", one of her favorite topics.
The legal hackers and the US Chamber of Commerce presented the methodology, experience and results of the privacy design lab of 6 November 2017 at the IAPP Congress two days later.

What is Cloquo?
Cloquo is a tool and a social network that lets you grab events you find on the Internet that you don’t want to miss out on and turns them into alarms sent directly to your smartphone (iPhone only for now). Later, you can share them and comment on them as well as follow people with similar tastes, and much more.
1. Grab events from the web
2. Turn them into alarms
3. Your iPhone will let you know when it’s time
4. Share alarms with friends
If you use Pocket or Evernote to save events you spot on internet from your computer, now you will save the webpage and also will get an alarm to get reminded about the event when time comes!
ChildStory District Solutions Showcase - Main PresentationChildStory
On 5 February we held a showcase of seven simple technology solutions that were thought up, designed and tested by Districts.
These solutions not only have the potential to make an immediate impact, but are critical in designing the range of broader technical solutions the ChildStory program will deliver.
Over one hundred frontline staff from across the state, the FACS Secretary and the program team came to Alexandria to see the progress of seven innovative solutions, but also to get hands-on experience using them to evaluate how they could support practice.
This is the main presentation from the program team.

NEW HUMAN CAPABILITIES IN A DYNAMIC WORKPLACE
Point of view document December 2015
Large organisations are experimening with implementing lean methodologies, design thinking and open innovation to step up their innovation capabilities. However, these practices are not simply 'out of the box' processes that can be adopted into the current work model. To leverage their potential, we need a whole new way of working that is customer centric, commercially disciplined, and experimental.
Claro Partners set out to understand this new way of working by talking to and immersing into new types of organisations that are forging new human capability practices. We focused on three key elements of human capabilities to support new innovation practices: a new organisational design, a new type of employee, and a new work experience. This document shares our perspective on why organisations need a different way of working and describes how to achieve this through reframing the way we think about these three key elements. It's based on our own practice and research around the world with leading organisations.
Home-based records (HBRs) are a vital tool that can support countries in achieving and sustaining high levels of vaccination coverage.
However, many countries continue to face challenges, including low retention rates by parents, difficulties in the printing and distribution of the document, and training health workers in its appropriate use.
The goal of this Home-based Records Revitalization Workshop was to improve the design and functionality of countries’ home-based records, with a focus on both the design of the record and the system that supports it.
The focus on immunization was chosen as an opportunity to demonstrate a systemized approach that can be applied to other elements of integrated health systems and materials.
The workshop focused on improving:
1. The design of the record from the immunization program perspective.
2. The broader system that supports the HBR, from approval and production to distribution and use.
Design Thinking workshop - Doing good doing well 2018, IESEClaro Partners Inc.
Intrigued by innovation enabling social impact? Interested in learning how to use the fundamentals of design thinking?
Participants will meet experienced professionals from the international innovation and service design consulting firm, in a speed brainstorming workshop to develop early-stage ideas. Claro will use their expertise in solving business and human problems to guide you through the steps of inspiration and ideation, brainstorming, strategic and tactical planning, and activation processes. This workshop will demonstrate how you could use innovation and design thinking to solve a real-world problem via a social enterprise.
Translating deep understanding of human need into scalable insights
Rapid change, increased interconnectivity and rising socioeconomic complexity make it increasingly difficult for corporations to stay relevant to their users in the long term.
Claro will build on our findings from the urban mobility research to illustrate how corporations need to move from solving immediate problems, to problem exploration.
By combining our understanding of human needs from our ethnographic research and mapping out global emerging value propositions, Claro has developed actionable tools and frameworks to create unique solutions in the urban mobility space. The tools and frameworks developed by Claro are not necessarily industry specific, and this makes them ideal when scalability is needed across industries and geographies to influence large scale issues.

Startupbootcamp Data & IoT and IoT lab - presentation at betahausClaro Partners Inc.
Presentation about the Startupbootcamp Data & IoT and IoT Labs - two initiatives from Claro Partners to help IoT entrepreneurs be successful with tools and mentoring.
The Internet of Things (IoT) presents a rapidly growing opportunity for companies in the technology space. However, the ecosystem of the IoT is complex, fragmented and has many dimensions (products, services, companies, geographies). Claro Partners recently completed a project to understand the Internet of Things landscape as it stands now, and to identify opportunity spaces within it. In this session we will build on this research to argue that the future of the IoT lies in value-added services built across platforms and devices, that create meaningful experiences and enhance people’s lives.
We have created an interactive Internet of Things business landscape, mapping 350 initiatives across 100 value propositions. Through this map, we will preview the vast landscape of value propositions across the IoT and the new business models they launch. We will uncover the opportunities that arise when creators look beyond simple track-and-trace applications or remote-control mechanisms and make the leap towards products which offer emotional benefits to users and enable meaningful object-mediated dialogues between people.
Presented at Big Data Week conference in Barcelona May 2014 at CCCB

with:
Ferran Gascon Burgada, Agroptima @agroptima
Angel Garcia, Founding Partner, Lanta Digital Ventures @angelgarciabcn
Lars Stalling, User Driven Service Innovation, Telefonica Digital @larsst
The panel covered the following questions after an introduction:
What will it take for the IoT to take off?
how we can help IoT startups to be successful?
what can enablers do to help IoT startups?
With increased connectivity, networks at both a global and local level are growing rapidly whilst new communities can develop and flourish through digital channels. These allow for resources to be shared, swapped, borrowed and traded; bearing a new economy that favours access over ownership.
This is a dramatically different user experience context that demands a transformation of our approach to service design. In this session we will share findings from our global research that explored the experiences and opportunities involved in moving from an ownership economy to one built on access and sharing. In this presentation we present guidelines for creating value exchange networks and share some tools we’ve developed for creating networked services and business models in the sharing economy.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.
