His goal is to empower students to win awards, create products and start companies.<\/p>\n<p>He organised a half day workshop on Design Thinking with his students and SIIP fellows. Design Thinking is a design methodology that provides a solution-based approach to solving problems. It\u2019s extremely useful in tackling complex problems. The regular innovation process consists of 4 stages \u2013 ideate, define, design and develop. These stages have to be synced efficiently so as to foster innovation in an organization. On the other hand, design thinking process has 5 stages- empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-334 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.venturecenter.co.in\/campaigns\/sanitation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/CMRIT.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/venturecenter.co.in\/campaigns\/sanitation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/CMRIT.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/venturecenter.co.in\/campaigns\/sanitation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/CMRIT-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/venturecenter.co.in\/campaigns\/sanitation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/CMRIT-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/venturecenter.co.in\/campaigns\/sanitation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/CMRIT-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>He briefly talked about sanitation, Bellandur lake problem and waste management. So far, we don\u2019t have any solution to recycle waste tyres, double layer plastic and sanitary pads &amp; diapers.<\/p>\n<p>After workshop, we were divided into four groups and given four problems and asked to find out probable viable solutions to solve problem by applying design thinking tools.
