Can the rate of adoption be affected by design? How does our perception of values affect the survival of tech products?
Designing product, sales and marketing to maximize results with less resources can help organizations cut costs and develop an extremely loyal customer base! Separate the facts from the hype and build what works!
Explore what is needed to serve and bridge a gaping (and potentially lucrative) digital divide.
DeMarketPlace is a virtual network & incubator, centered in Brooklyn, designed within the constraints of doing more with less! The goal was to create a methodology and model which, while identifying and testing tools that could be used, could easily be adapted in any country with whatever existing resources were available! Thus giving local businesses access to a Global Market, in the shortest time possible!
Show your support!

We do support designers coming together to stage a series of shows in their stores and showrooms that bringth ecustomer to them , that allows for serious shopping. but also can be marketed for the press and attention that designers seem to need. For those not in Brooklyn or do not have venues we have secured affordable space. We are looking for a group of designers willing to help shape this. As a designer I do not understand the willingness to let someone else decide on your your models, lighting etc.
