Design Firm interested in Chatting with expats in Bogotá on 21 April

9 years ago

Hi All,
I'm Sam, and I'm the design Research Recruiter for IDEO's New York City office. At IDEO, we use a human-centered, design-based process to work on all sorts of challenges in all sorts of industries, ranging from traditional products and services, to systems and environments, and sometimes future-spotting and culture work.

We're heading to Bogotá working on a project to redesign the branch banking experience for our client. Along with understanding how banking works here, we're really interested in the cultural nuances of Colombia, and thought we might try and speak to some expats to really be able to measure the similarities and differences between Colombian culture and that of the US and Canada.

We've put together a dinner in Zona Rosa on 21 April and would love to have some of you join us. Dinner would of course be on us, and we'd compensate you 150,000 pesos for your time.

Who we're looking for:
-American/Canadian Expats living in Bogotá
-Living there for 7+ years and/or married to a local person

If you're interested, please shoot me note back with a bit of information about you and an email address and we'll get in touch.

Best,
Sam
