What it’s about
Design Difference – Designing Our World 2050
Over the three days of the Congress 9 Studio Leaders, 4 Keynote Speakers and the Congress facilitators will engage with the Congress Delegates on a wide range of issues from urban development, transport and healthcare, to sustainability and the way we will live in 2050.
9 Design2050 Studios, led by prominent Design Leaders, are developing concepts that will be discussed at the Congress and developed into Design 2050 solutions that will be published and featured in exhibitions following the closing of the event. Our aim is to develop ‘real world’ solutions that are viable within current and future scenarios, for a more sustainable economy and society in 2050.
We believe that the challenges we face over the next 40 years represent unprecedented opportunities to develop new products, processes and solutions that will be the foundation of a new sustainable economy.
Engage with the world’s leading creative thinkers in Singapore this November as they present their visionary ideas that will play a vital part in shaping a better world of tomorrow.
