The d.school‘s Entrepreneurial Design for Extreme Affordability was profiled today in the Stanford Business Magazine! It’s a really good article that show a lot of the details “behind the scenes” in the class.

In addition to the article, Stanford Business magazine Associate Editor Arthur Patterson closely followed the Entrepreneurial Design for Extreme Affordability course in his online journal.
