Design Driven Innovation Programme

Through Design-Driven Innovation Program (DIP), businesses can seek financial support to involve designers in the idea phase of an innovation project. If designers are involved early, there is a greater chance of developing a product or service adapted to the actual needs of the user. The program is run by DOGA in collaboration with The Research Council of Norway and Innovation Norway. The previous application deadline for DIP funds was May 11, 2017.
