"Good design is often the defining element of the products, businesses, environments and sciences that become legendary,” said Josh Tyrangiel, editor of Bloomberg Businessweek. “These designers are setting the bar for innovation in their respective fields, and at this event they can venture out of their professional enclaves, come together, perhaps even collide, in unexpected and provocative groupings, to discuss process, passions, influences, successes, and failures." “At Bloomberg Businessweek our mission is to surprise, delight, and inform our entrepreneurial readers every week by giving them access to the insight of our editors and writers and the wisdom of the sharpest business minds around the globe,” said Paul Bascobert, President of Bloomberg Businessweek. “We fulfill that promise with this conference, at which C-suite attendees will learn where design is leading businesses and communities next, and enjoy one- on-one interactions with the Businessweek team and the stellar roster of presenters.” Bloomberg Businessweek Design 2013 is the first conference launched by the magazine since its acquisition by Bloomberg LP in 2009. An exclusive audience of 250 attendees will be on hand for the one-day conference's four sessions, networking periods, and closing cocktail party. Attendance is by invitation only. Senior executives may request invitations and get additional information at http://conference.businessweek.com/design/. Coverage of select sessions from the conference will be available across various Bloomberg Businessweek and Bloomberg platforms, including Bloomberg TV, businessweek.com, Facebook, Twitter (@BW, #BBWdesign), and the Bloomberg Businessweek+ app. The January 28, 2013, issue of Bloomberg Businessweek will be a special Design Issue, devoted to ideas and discoveries generated at Bloomberg Businessweek Design 2013.
