A weekend of service design to research, ideate, prototype & solve real problems to develop a solution in 48 hours.

What is the Service Jam?

A weekend of service design doing: listening to real people share their challenges, exploring solutions that meet real needs, and prototyping to develop a solution in 48 hours. March 13th – 15th, San Diego will host its third Service Jam!

What makes SD Service Jam special isn’t just the process: it’s the people, the play, and the practice. Participants don’t sit through talks. They learn by building, testing, and sharing together, supported by local practitioners who believe design should be accessible, human, and joyful.
