The Service Jam Berlin is part of a global event and will be open for around 30+ service design enthusiasts, who are eager to learn new methods and tools and share their experiences. At the same time, Service Jams will be held in multiple locations all over the world. 

As a part of the Saturday noon input session, Edenspiekermann partner Pia Betton will talk about how we encourage a culture of innovation and failure in our own office in Berlin. It will be a talk about trial and error, about sharing, experiencing and keeping an open mind.

Also note their official statement: “The Global Service Jam is a community of jams taking place internationally over the same weekend. All the jams share the same starting themes, and publish their local results over a central platform. The theme for participants in the Global Service Jam will be announced at 5:00 pm (local time) on the Friday, and results must be shared by 3:00 pm (local time) on the Sunday.

A Service Jam is a cooperative gathering of people interested in a design-based approach to creativity and problem solving, and of course in service design. It is there to encourage experimentation and innovation – participants come together without a team, without an idea and are given a subject or theme to incorporate in their new-to-the-world design while meeting new people.”
