2019 Agenda
As always, we will curate a diverse mix of topics including Design Thinking in Business and Design Thinking applied in institutions, governments, and for social impact. As per our community’s feedback from past years, we will create more opportunities for further discussions and synthesis based on the stories of our presenters.
Beside the topics above, we are introducing a few timely themes for deep dive this year: Trust, Transparency, Biases and Ethics, which will hopefully provoke rich discussions and plenty of food for thoughts. Look out for more details here as we get closer to the event!
