From ideas to impact: Designing Innovation through Ethical Leadership

Unlock the power of creativity and collaboration in shaping the future. Discover how cross-disciplinary teams are redefining innovation to tackle the world’s most pressing challenges.

At Domus Academy, design is a collaborative process that transforms the cultural and professional diversity of students into a driving force for innovation. Only in environments with strong creative spillover can projects emerge where ideas dialogue, compete, reinvent, and connect. Empathy, collaboration, and leadership are essential to guiding these processes, turning insights into innovative ventures. During this speech, we will present projects from the Business Design area, showcasing how design can generate new ideas and business models capable of addressing future challenges. Through transdisciplinary teams, critical sessions, and a dialogue-driven approach, students develop new venture and startup ideas from scratch, exploring solutions with tangible impact on sustainability and society.
