Paper Abstract:	E-learning, knowledge sharing, design thinking education and design driven innovation innovation are all key elements of this case study. The E-learning platform about Design Thinking is born as a result of the growing pervasiveness of this approach to innovation in different application contexts: from strategic consulting to digital transformation, from the design of digital experiences (UX / UI) to the development of new experiences. of consumption. The extraordinary amount of acquisitions in recent years of design firms by strategic consulting firms or major digital solution providers demonstrates the growing pervasiveness of Design Thinking. The phenomenon highlights the strategic value that the methodologies, approaches and tools of Design Thinking assume in different contexts. In particular, the platform aims to be the reference point for the community of innovators who adopt pioneering approaches such as Design Thinking in creating value for their companies. The goal is to develop a group of actors interested in exchanging views on the latest developments in Design Thinking, analyzing both the strengths and weaknesses of this approach to become a solid and updated reference point for all Design Thinkers. Such roles are not always easy to explain, since they differ from case to case, but Design Thinking in Italy is - and will increasingly become - a definite value and a competitive tool. Design can and must be a fundamental part of every single company's production, communication and distribution strategy. The e-learning platform launched by Università Telematica San Raffaele Roma's "Design thinking innovation" is intended to demonstrate that design is neither a sole interest nor an exclusive prerogative of large companies or those operating in sectors that have traditionally been design oriented. In fact, design driven education and innovation is a basic lever for competitiveness and internationalization that is available in every sector. Creating an e-learning platform is an important opportunity of building a new designing and community identity; a significant chance to meet and a landmark not only for professionals, but also for creative people working outside established enterprises (from every countries). Conclusions are about Design Thinking education and possible future developments, the role of design as a key competitive variable for the system, the new professionals and the winning models.
