Lee Moreau is Vice President of Design at EPAM Continuum, a global design and innovation consultancy based in Boston. He is also a visiting lecturer at MIT where he teaches design strategy and innovation.
Continuum and Fisher-Price partnered to envision parenting in the future.
Moreau talks about how many companies rely on assumptions about their core consumers instead of constantly listening to their needs:
