INTRODUCTION

Human Centered Design Thinking, is a creative approach to problem solving. It is people centric, and helps find tailor made solutions by using innovative approach, from start to end.

Design thinking is an iterative, non-linear process which focuses on a collaboration between designers and users. It brings innovative solutions to life based on how real users think, feel and behave. This human-centered design process consists of five core stages Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype and Test.It is a nonlinear system where various strategic, cognitive, and technical approaches are taken to build the best possible product through understanding users.

The goal of the design thinking process is to come up with solutions, products, or services that are desirable for the user, economically viable from a business perspective, and technologically feasible.

The future of design thinking lies in its ability to help people solve complex problems in creative ways. As our world becomes more complex, there will be an increasing need for people who can think outside the box and come up with innovative solutions.

Keeping this in view, Indian Machine Tool Manufacturers' Association (IMTMA) is organizing a 3 days interactive in person programme on "Design Thinking".
