About MIB


What is Memphis Innovation Bootcamp?

Memphis Innovation Bootcamp (MIB) is a series of three-day, intensive, and hands-on workshops that introduce professionals and academics to the latest concepts in fostering innovation, radical collaboration, and human-centered design.

As a participant in MIB, you will be part of a small multidisciplinary team and work through a hands-on innovation challenge from start to finish. You will walk away from each workshop with a strong understanding of specific approaches to innovation and be able to execute them within your organization. Learn more about your instructors here.
