Design: Accelerating Transformation. Hybrid Conference – 15. Oktober 2020, Swiss Design Association
Design accelerates transformation. On 15 October 2020, design experts and practitioners from Switzerland and abroad will discuss how design can support governments in designing efficient and human-centered public policies, how the value of design can be increased and articulated at the strategic level, and how the impact of design can be measured. Learn more about the crucial role design can play in times like these, when change is happening all around us. Join us via livestream for the whole afternoon or choose one specific session.
The “Design: Accelerating Transformation” summit will broaden the understanding of the opportunities design offers society in the face of rapid change, deepen the knowledge of the value created by designers and will engage key stakeholders in the conversation about the value of having designers as full parts of their boards. The hybrid event will be broadcasted live from the auditorium of the School of Design Bern, Switzerland. The event is held in english.
