SUMMARY:From designer to founder: The leap we don’t talk about
DESCRIPTION:Designers admire founders\, but they don’t see THEMSELVES as founders. We are taught to focus on craft\, to wait for an engineer\, to avoid business. \nBut the landscape has changed. \nAI lets us prototype and build faster than ever. Business skills can be learned. Vision and taste are already our strengths. \nThis talk invites designers to see founding as an act of design: shaping product\, narrative\, culture\, and company. \nIf even one designer walks out believing they are allowed to build the future\, this talk will have done its job.
