​Design Strategy*
​
*Efficiency and pace of an intertwined trend, design and market strategy are key to successful, brand-oriented product development and accelerated success. Design strategy involves the integration of design, marketing, development and production to strategically conceive products according to target group-oriented requirements. It is a decisive success factor for the achievement of entrepreneurial goals.
​​​
Design Strategy is therefore not just a task for creatives, but within the framework of corporate strategy. For this reason, it is logical to closely link the work of designers and managers.​
