PRODUCT DESIGN
we define, design and visualise hardware ideas, collaborating with your in-house R&D to bring innovative concepts to life
hands-on innovation consulting and strategy facilitation, by design
co-create and prototype your product, process or organisation. From half-day workshop to end-to-end collaboration: tailor our methods to your needs
we help you structure your (digital) transformation
navigating internal innovation roadmaps, (in)organic growth, and fast-paced geopolitical, tech and AI landscapes can be daunting. Our methodical approach applies management consulting, design thinking and agile methods, to define meaningful products, services, and experiences that foster sustainability, empathy and resilience
not sure if design thinking is what you need?
simple: give Diana Schneider a call at 0032 486 82 91 60 or send an email diana@thinkbrisk.com. We’ll have a quick conversation or meeting at your offices about your ambition and where you are in your innovation journey. Together, we’ll explore if a collaboration makes sense for both of us and take it from there.
wonder if this applies to your company/ sector/ size?
absolutely. We’ve worked for companies big and small, from the start-up figuring out its customer journey, to the multinational wanting to optimise internal standard operating procedures. B2C to B2B, robotics to retail: all with the same human-centric design approach. Check out our cases to get inspired.
do you need a big consulting budget to work with us?
if you budgeted for a multi-year collaboration with us, we’re delighted, let’s go. If not: we can activate your teams in a half-day session to identify opportunities, or start with a quick digital training on innovation methods. From a few hours, to a few years: we adapt to your budget and timeline.
do we have deep, specific expertise in your industry?
we bring the approach, structure, and tools to connect the dots during R&D, the learnings from our strategy work in adjacent sectors, and the external view asking the right questions. You bring the specific subject matter expertise (or we help you find it by plugging in senior industry experts via scouting agencies if needed)
briskly accelerating robust decision-making
design thinking, lean startup, and agile development apply iterative, human-centric problem definition, rapid experimentation, and collaborative development. We help you pick the right methods to deliver strategies that are desirable, viable, and feasible, while keeping processes swift and goal-oriented. Our aim is to provide you with insights and concepts to keep your strategy moving forward at a brisk pace.

- field research & stakeholder interviews
- focus groups
impactful insights to streamline your operations and identify opportunities
we transform data into actionable insights, whether it be patient scenarios in your hospital, UX flows of your robot monitoring app or an innovation landscape in your construction sector. Our trend mappings, personas, customer journeys, storyboards and competitor maps highlight opportunities and help you communicate effectively
- user journeys & customer personas

rapid design prototyping to test and validate ideas, ventures or products
if an image says more than 1000 words, a prototype says more than 1000 meetings. We design products, environments, brands or processes from first sketch to tested Proof Of Concept. With our combined industrial design, product development, UX research and engineering backgrounds, we help you make ideas tangible to test them with your stakeholders
- sketching & storyboards
- 2d mock-ups of UX, flows and processes
- 3d modelling & rendering
- (digital) roadmaps
