It has been equally successful in attracting students and external partners from indus- try, the public sector, and society,and producinginnovativeproductsand services solutions. My motivation behind initiating the HPI-Stanford Design Thinking Research Program was the desire to understandwhy and how the Design Thinking method works on a scientific basis. Through joint research projects, we try to figure out which factorsultimately contribute to the success of this type of innovationin all areasoflife.Inordertoimplementinnovationprocessesinindustryandthepublic sector,wemuststrivetoimproveourunderstandingofthem. My main interestis to see the Design Thinkingmethod used in IT/engineering andtounderstandhowitinspirescreativemultidisciplinaryteamworkacrossfacul- ties;whetherandhowspatial,time,andculturalboundariescanbeovercome;and how it can be meshed with traditional approachesin the field of engineering. We mightalsobeabletoproposedifferentorganizationalstructuresfordesignteamsin corporations. Ithasalsobeenamysterytomeforalongtimewhythestructureofsuccessful designteamsdifferssosubstantiallyfromtraditionalcorporatestructures. I am delighted and proud to see this transatlantic research cooperation thrive and develop into a potent academic force in the field of innovation research, and I am confident that answers to some of these questions can be found – and to an v vi Foreword extent – have already been found.
