		<description>In this Aalto University’s Leading for Interdisciplinary Creativity podcast series, we discuss about leading for creativity, interdisciplinary teamwork, future of design intensive business and much more. 

The master programme International Design Business Management, IDBM in short, started in 1995 as the first joint study option among three Finnish universities that later became the founding institutions of Aalto University. It&#039;s more than fair to say that IDBM played a pivotal role in the creation of Aalto.

In Leading for Interdisciplinary Creativity, you will hear the thoughts of some of the leading creative business minds connected to IDBM. We discuss the past, present, and future, celebrating the programme&#039;s 30-year anniversary while revealing both intriguing insights from insiders and topical themes relevant to the creative industry.

The podcast is hosted by Irina Viippola, an industrial designer, design entrepreneur, and Professor of Practice at Aalto University.

Get tuned in and enjoy!</description>
