Experimentation is often positioned as a product or growth function. Designers are invited to contribute, but rarely equipped to lead. The result? Strong insights are generated, but testing them is slow, dependent on engineering backlogs, and disconnected from day-to-day design practice.

This talk presents a practical model for building a design-led experimentation culture. Rather than focusing only on hypothesis templates or tooling, it explores how to shift capability and access: building belief that experimentation belongs within design craft, upskilling teams to translate research into strong, testable problem statements, and creating real opportunities to run experiments through labs, process integration, and self-serve tooling. Attendees will leave with a repeatable framework for embedding experimentation into their own design practice, and expanding their influence from solution delivery to measurable product impact.
