DESIGN DISRUPTED//SHAPING THE FUTURE OF DESIGN

Industrial Design as we know it is changing, with disruptions affecting designers across the globe. But we don’t have to do it alone – by cultivating collective adaptability, we have the power to shape and redefine our industry and prove our value. Are you prepared to embrace these changes and elevate your design skills to new heights?   

In this rapidly changing environment, designers face new pressures in response to the state of the global economy and mass layoffs in design. Now, more than ever, designers must demonstrate their value as the tools we employ and the roles we fulfill continue to evolve. Together, we'll explore the skills you need to remain relevant through agility and adaptability as you forge connections with your fellow attendees.
