Early bird prices at 45 % off end 31 July.
The Icsid World Design Congress 2009 will be held from 23 to 25 November at Suntec International Convention and Exhibition Centre in Singapore. Themed "Design Difference - Designing Our World 2050", this year's Congress will directly address today's global challenges in an attempt to deliver powerful propositions that will shape the world of 2050. The congress will involve professional associations, societies, institutions, government bodies, and corporations from around the world.
To reach and embrace the future, the conventional congress aims to go beyond the traditional approach by engaging keynote speakers, design leaders and delegates to interact and collaborate before, during and after the event.
For the very first time, the congress will feature inter-active and participative mini-symposia ? "Design2050 Studios?, led by world-renowned creative experts including Chris Bangle of Chris Bangle Associates, and Stefano Marzano of Ph ilips Design. In the months leading to the Congress, each design leader will head up a team of four to six individuals from multi-discipline backgrounds to create a Design2050 proposition, by imagining, conceptualising and visualising a desired future. The propositions will be presented and discussed during the Congress.
The three-day event will feature presentations by design leaders in the morning sessions. In the afternoon, each Design2050 Studio will present their concepts, followed by panel discussions where you will get an opportunity to discuss and refine the scenarios and transform them into practical realities.
