It approaches Design Thinking as an experience to define the Technological Showcase of the NIT UFMA. The objective of the study is to report the Design Thinking activities developed by students in the Technological Entrepreneurship discipline, of the Master's in Intellectual Property and Technology Transfer for Innovation, with the objective of analyzing and proposing improvements in the dissemination of the Institution's technological innovations. The methodology adopted was exploratory and descriptive research with a qualitative approach. Observations were made on the portfolio of technologies protected by UFMA and interviews were carried out among the 10 students participating in the activity, to identify different points of view and develop a product to increase the visibility of technologies protected by the NIT/UFMA. All stages of Design Thinking were followed and as a result a prototype of the Technological Showcase was created as a space that will serve to increase the visibility of the technologies registered by the NIT/UFMA.
