Overview

When it comes to innovation, one size doesn’t fit all. Learn how to tackle your organisation’s innovation challenges with Design Factory Melbourne (DFM) – from finding new market opportunities and defining your competitive advantage, to understanding your customers on a deeper level, building better solutions for them and developing your strategy to build, test, and learn in real time, alongside your customers.

DFM’s proven methodology draws on expertise across design, technology development, and business strategy, empowering you to uncover where to play in new markets, design how to win with new products and services, and navigate ambiguity and complexity as you build. Think of it as your sandbox to mitigate business risk, lower development costs, and test ideas early to validate product-market fit before you invest your time and money in development.

The process is is collaborative; you’ll work closely with DFM who will support you to arrive at an impactful, tangible outcome that’s good for your customers and great for your business. DFM will assemble an interdisciplinary team for your business, so you can harness wide-ranging expert knowledge and innovation methodologies to unpack, explore and develop ideas for your challenges.
