DesignLab develops and collaborates in projects and communities in which collaboration between academia and external partners has a central place. Our community of students, partners from science, industry and society uses the Responsible Futuring approach in projects shaped by urgent societal challenges, with the aim of co-creating futures we want to want to live in. Have you got a societal challenge that needs the (responsible) use of technology and that could benefit from research insights and creative disruption? Whether you're a researcher, student, business or societal partner: [contact us](https://www.utwente.nl/en/designlab/reservation%20request/) for the possibilties.
