5X5® programme

The Project
With the 5X5® programme Designregio Kortrijk teaches companies how to stay agile by setting up out of the box collaborations with creative minds and thus integrating design thinking within the company. Sharing expertise leads to synergy, or one plus one makes three.

Designregio Kortrijk has developed a licence model around the 5X5® expertise, allowing the licensee to give regional companies a boost in design thinking. As a licensee you can roll out multiple 5X5® programmes. To that end the licensor provides the licensee with:

  • all necessary knowledge on the tried-and-tested 12 step-programme, including tips & tricks, best practices and tools;
  • access to the community of companies and designers that already participated in a 5X5® programme;
  • communication on the cases and branding of the 5X5® trademark.
