    What it's like

    Try, mess up, struggle, keep going, have fun!

    Get excited about an idea. Put all your effort behind it. Run up against the wall. Work with new people. Build up your thinking, then make it work in a weekend. On Saturday morning you’ll be up to your ears in post-its, and on Sunday you’ll have a finished service.

    What it is

    Global designathon. 

    Global Service Jam is a three-day, intensive workshop, although playshop might be a better word. It’s part of a movement of design-driven hackathons, we call them jams, which is happening on one weekend in cities across the globe. In short, we’re bringing together all kinds of people to design, prototype and present a service in a weekend.
