Between January and April 2024, nine student designers worked directly with the technical and business leads of nine Canadian companies to explore and develop a new methodology for connecting design to Internet startups. Designers considered existing design gaps, perform user interface/usability studies, and develop design strategies for the companies in residence.

We will hear presentations from the following designers:

Rita (Honghuan) Wang paired with Adwow, Cailine Keirstead paired with Airble, Lody Gwon paired with Ascinta Technologies, Jessica Cole paired with CreativeFlow, Violet Zhang paired with enjoi, Alex Dabecki paired with Intelligent Project Solutions, Faizaan Siddiqui paired with MergeBase, and Joshita Nagaraj paired with Vaster.

Design for Startups is funded by the National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program from Fall 2022 through Spring 2024.
