F.A.Q
How long does the whole process take?
Typically, from start to finish, the process takes 2-3 weeks after the interview.
Who should I invite to participate?
We recommend a group of up to six that can offer unique points of view during this conversation.
How long does the interview take?
The interview typically takes around 1-hour.
Are there constraints to the topic I can select?
The topic can be as broad or as narrow as you'd like. The main objective is that you find value in its discussion.
Will the Ideas that are brought up be specifically digital?
No. There is typically a broad spectrum of Ideas that range from digital experiences to physical concepts, as well as branding and market based Ideas.
Will the Ideas be specifically things that Foundry can solely execute on?
Not intentionally. While Foundry could be a partner to realize many of the Ideas, some concepts might be more efficiently handled by more appropriate partners or internal groups within your organization.
Do I own all the material that is created?
Yes! The document and all the Ideas are yours to pursue as you see fit.

You'll walk away with the three primary Ideas with narrative exploration, as well as a variable collection of anywhere from 12-24 early Idea concepts.

While the specifics are custom to Foundry, they follow the empathy-based principles laid out by Design Thinking and are applied using methods pioneered within the Google Design Sprint methodology.
How immediately actionable are these Ideas?
Our goal is to find a balance between immediately actionable and aspirational Ideas that will require additional effort or organizational alignment before they could begin to be implemented.
Will the Ideas be specifically things that Foundry can solely execute on?
