Our largest Jam will continue the recipe for success as it moves into its fourteenth edition, and local hosts can choose to run offline, online, or mixed Jams!
The biggest, oldest and boldest of the three Jams, the #GSJam appeals to everyone interested in a design-based approach to change. With its broad appeal, it’s a great place for beginners to learn – or get better at – a whole set of design tools, methods and mindsets, which can be applied to any project.
Or for experienced participants, the unique and optional Deep Jam challenge lets you test your skills against the clock, and against your peers on five continents.
With usually over 100 Jam locations all over the world, you won’t have to look – or even travel – far to find a Jam site. Or why not start your own? Just pick your own dates within the Jam period.*
More locations are signing up all the time!
If you want to know more (for example about online Jamming) listen to this Podcast to hear all about it.
* Physical Jams need to fit inside one 48 hour period. They can be shorter than 48 hours, but never longer. Digital or hybrid Jams can add up to 48 hours, but can spread the time over more days.
So, you are thinking about hosting a Jam? To help you decide, we put together the answers to nine key questions on this concise Slidedeck.
