Design Ventura is a project run by the Design Museum that aims to develop creativity and enterprise skills. Students ages 14-25 are challenged to design a creative product to be sold in the museum shop for around £10. Teams submit their ideas and the best workshop team will receive funding to make their product, while the top virtual teams will exhibit in the shop and receive trophies. The competition aims to get students thinking about all aspects of designing and bringing a product to market.

Ìý
Sustainability You should consider the wider environmental and ethical implications of your idea. Can you create a design and a business model that does minimizes waste?
Ìý

Top Tips from Sebastian Conran
Top Tip 1 You can never know too much about our design before you make it. Key Questions: How will you make it? Who will buy it? Where will it be sold? How will it be used?
Top Tip 2 Communicate your idea clearly and effectively. Use models, drawing and sketches as well as words to communicate. Think about how your idea will look How will it work? Why will people buy it?
