TREND BOOTCAMP > THE EXPERIENCE
Want to experience the power of trend research? In this interactive bootcamp you will become a trend researcher yourself and wake up your inner trend spotter!
Get acquainted with the 3-phased trend research cycle (scan, analyse and apply) by executing these phases on the spot. Essential for anyone who wants to get a quick and dynamic introduction into the fascinating field of researching trends or for anyone wants to refresh their trend skills.
BOOTCAMP OUTLINE
This bootcamp is really an experience, so no 'death by Powerpoint' and mostly learning by doing. The global outline of the program is:
- Short introduction on the field of trend research
- Scan: hit the streets and practice trend spotting
- Analyse: use your findings to execute a quick trend analysis
- Apply: translate your insights into first, rough creative ideas
After this bootcamp you will be more observant of change in your environment and able to use the trend tools yourself in your daily (job) activities.

This bootcamp will be English spoken when non-Dutch participants join. The minimum number of participants is 4 and the maximum is 8.
Because of the focus on learning by doing this bootcamp is limited to 8 participants, so everyone can share personal experiences and questions.
To keep the costs at a minimum, the bootcamp is held at a low-key location in an upcoming neighbourhood and provides no-frills catering. This allows people from all kinds of backgrounds to participate, from freelancers to corporate employees.
