Are you tired of having brilliant ideas that never see the light of day? Ready to move beyond theoretical projects and build something real people actually use? In this community, you'll combine human-centered design with cutting-edge AI tools to tackle real problems. But here's the twist—you won't just prototype in isolation. You'll ship your solution to actual users, gather feedback, and iterate based on what you learn.

This is my first course where there are other students from different schools. I was able to connect with a few and gain new ideas and gain a better understanding of what social enterprise is and how it works.​
I just love talking to different people and bouncing off each other’s ideas. The questions that the peers asked were right on the spot, such as "how are you going to profit from this?" Their inputs also gave me new inspirations.
I liked how smoothly everything went in the session, making the experience fun and enjoyable. Sophie and Louie are engaging and inspiring people to learn from. The breakout rooms were also helpful in making the session interactive and created space for new ideas to emerge!
The session was so much fun! I really liked how I got to talk out my ideas with my groupmates, and they gave me some valuable insights, which was really refreshing!
Being able to talk to other like-minded people and receiving support for any issues/problems that me and my partner are facing was very helpful for us, especially since we're slightly behind due to having a relatively busy week.
The people I was discussing with were very passionate about making a change in the world. Additionally, the presenters were very friendly, accommodating, and clear when presenting.
