Delivering great experiences is at the heart of what we do–and that extends to educational use as well. Join the happy educators and students already using FIBRES!

"Since innovation is largely about coming up with the right idea at the right time, we wanted to familiarize the students with some foresight methodologies – more specifically signal sourcing, clustering, and sense-making. FIBRES provided the students with a place to save their findings on their perceived problems and strengths, and to organize those findings."

Joris Fokkelman, Guest lecturer, OTH Regensburg
