Pecha Kucha for Creatives: With Almudena Romero | 10 August
Pecha Kuncha, roughly meaning 'chit chat' in Japanese, is a much loved format for discussions in the design industry. This intimate event hosted by RAW labs gives participants the opportunity to become part of the conversation and to share ideas. Networking over drinks will follow the discussions, allowing the predicted mix of artists, makers, and designers to continue talking about their work.
