[RE] Design Business Conference

Event Information

The economic and social challenges triggered by COVID-19 means that there are huge challenges ahead for businesses of all sizes and stages.

For businesses to be resilient and thrive, they need to understand their customers’ needs, be able to differentiate their offer in the marketplace, and develop an evidence-based strategy for sustainability, resilience and growth. We know that Design improves business performance, de-risking and encouraging innovation, competition and economic growth as set out in Design Councils recently published Impact report.

For London Design Week 2020 (LDW), the Design Council and Propela are partnering up to produce a one-of-a-kind programme of experts to solve problems, illuminate new ways of seeing and provide an optimal roadmap for where Design and Business meet.

The distinguishing theme for the programme will be [Re]Design Business.
We all agree that 2020 has evolved into a once-in-a-generation opportunity for a significant rethink, rewire and reset - but it won’t happen with the same tools and the same instruction manual of the past.

So during the most important week in London’s design calendar a business track will be embedded inside a design conference . The sessions will offer insights on the strategic value of design; as design is an essential tool for the business of the future.

The Design Council and Propela invite the business community to join the event and help bridge the gap between the industries.
