It allows you to communicate and immerse yourself into stories that you won't be able access in reality. Let's imagine a better future and communicate about it via this immersive device. Maybe it can change our collective imagery ?

Codesigner in Creativity

Goût d'idées / Codesign-it!

France

After some time at Endemol creative studios, I was convinced that creativity is an individual power which, once organized in a collective way, permits organizations to change. So I went abroad mainly (USA, Denmark, Italy…) to train myself at managing the creative process. Through Goût d’idées and Codesign-it!, I have worked with companies and institutions for over ten years on innovation. As a facilitator, I conceive custom-made creativity workshops and smart immersions, permitting the teams to reinvent themselves, and to search for and develop and new concepts and services.

Hence, understanding global dynamics is the first step on this road.
