If you’ve followed our Humble company for a while you’ll know we’ve strengthened the team within service and business design in the last couple of years.
Why studio projects could be great for your agency
You were new in the job and had the ideas, the energy and the mandate to digitalize, industry 4.0-ize, innovatize and a dozen other ‘-izes’.
So you need to build a digital product or service? This is how we do it.
Crafting great products is our SuperPower. We’re not just thinking or beard-stroking. We build shit that people will love and use.
A Humblebee Design Sprint is a short, intense process (usually 4–5 days) to help with the creation of digital products and services.
We get these questions quite often. What is Hive, what do they do, who’s in team? Do I get any help? Now as we are recruiting the next team for Spring 2023, I decided to unveil the inner workings and make it easier for you to decide if this could be something for you!
Now’s the time to start: high-leverage, low-cost, and a vital key to future data-driven successes
There is more than Silicon valley — Motivation service — Human + machine mindset — Future of Artificial Intelligence is in China

In this article I’m going to take you through the exact process we used to create 6 digital product ideas in 3 hours — in Hong Kong — in a group of around 50 people.
Maybe you’re one of the many people working at a large company who want to act and think like a start-up? Maybe you’re relatively new to the company and you’re keen to build a legacy you can leave behind you? You’re keen to make genuine change.
