Design Sprint Ltd

We are Design Sprint Ltd, based in Lausanne, Switzerland, on the shores of Lake Geneva. Since 2016, we have pioneered design sprint in Europe. Our clients in Switzerland, France, and worldwide come from various industries challenging their services, digital and physical products: banks, insurance companies, healthcare institutions, health tech startups, energy, government, and public authorities.

We created "The Design Sprint Quarter", a three-month strategy for transforming promising ideas into viable products. It helps startups and companies rethink their working habits and turn their promising ideas into products and services.

When Covid-19 took the world by surprise, our team had to gather all their physical design sprint experience and looked for ways to make it as efficient and enjoyable, but in a remote setting. We worked on a template to allow running 5-day Design Sprints entirely virtually. Our Remote Design Sprint Template allows facilitators around the globe to smoothly run remote sprints, even through different time zones.

Our clients include leading Swiss and international organizations such as The United Nations, Swissquote Bank, l'Oréal, Autodesk, Roche, Sicpa, Somfy, EPFL, State of Vaud, Climeworks, Swiss Re, Kudelski, MassChallenge, and many more…

We have been organizing events and Masterclasses with world-class speakers, like Jake Knapp (creator of the Design Sprint) or Alex Osterwalder, with an astounding success among innovation leaders, designers, and product teams.

By organizing conferences & masterclasses, we want to introduce European decision-makers to user-centered design principles, show them how to de-risk a business idea, and inspire them by showcasing people, methods, and tools behind the success of some of the world's best tech companies. We are a bridge between Switzerland and Silicon Valley.
