Business & Entepreneurship

When I began my educational journey I saw business and entrepreneurship as secondary to my interests but I recognized its importance for a designer. Over time, I realized how crucial it is to understand market dynamics and strategic decision-making to create impactful designs. I now look at my designs through a wider lens to see how business systems affect how my designs operate in the real world. It also aligns with my professional identity as a social entrepreneur, allowing me to address societal challenges through design while promoting sustainability and community engagement.

As a social entrepreneur, I am driven to generate positive change by developing innovative design solutions. My interest in strategic product design, particularly in understanding how products are introduced to markets, has guided me to explore concepts such as value propositions, stakeholder engagement, and market dynamics. Initially, my focus was on building a foundation in these areas, learning how to structure business models, identify opportunities, and develop user-centered ideas.


Future Steps

Looking ahead, I see Business and Entrepreneurship as a key area for my continued growth. While I have developed a strong foundation in identifying opportunities and building value-driven concepts, I want to refine my ability to create scalable solutions that can thrive in dynamic markets. A particular focus will be on integrating strategic product design with sustainability, ensuring that the solutions I create are innovative but also relevant and impactful in the long term.

Additionally, I aim to strengthen my leadership skills, particularly in guiding interdisciplinary teams toward shared goals. This will enable me to navigate the complexities of bringing socially driven designs to market effectively. In the future, I hope to connect my understanding of business with other expertise areas, such as Technology and Realization, to address emerging global challenges in a way that is both innovative and grounded in societal needs.
