30 May - Future Well Being Research
Grant Harrison & research associates CRISP
“We design, speak and consult to inspire health”, is the slogan of the Future Well. Two years ago, doctor Jay Parkinson visited the Design Academy Eindhoven for the symposium Senses and Sources and shared his thoughts about the future of health services. Together with Grant Harrison, who has a passion for the human side of health, Parkinson believes in consumer engagement systems that link health attitudes to health behaviours. The Future Well helps clients to create health products, services and experiences for the right people at the right time.
Research Associates of the Gmotiv project will share their thoughts on how serious games can be used to help addicts and stimulate social interaction or physical activities
