2021 student service design challenge - design
future-oriented services and improve the lives of many
About
this challenge
This Student Service Design Challenge is a global design award that celebrates, encourages
and inspires the next generation of designers. It's open to current design students, and is initiated by Philips Experience
Design, as part of its mission to involve young designers in finding people-centered and future-oriented services for people
who need care.
With this challenge younger generations – over 50% of the people in the world are
younger than 27 – take part in shaping the future of care, and designing for people's health, well-being and welfare. That
is why we invite design students to explore current care situations and think about what they would do to improve them. Their
unbiased, playful and uninhibited approach may lead to new, disruptive ideas, increasing the chance to deliver on the promise
of value-based care: providing the right care to the people who need it, at the right time, in a convenient, affordable, easy
and accessible way, and – if possible – at the lowest cost.
