About the event

How can designers do what they love, make positive impact AND make a living? An evening with a showcase and talkshow.
Design based on open, sustainable, inclusive and collaborative principles. Innovative concepts that respect natural resources and social values ??appear more and more often but also represent a niche in the larger linear economy in which we live. For starting designers or new ideas it might be hard to find a market, raw (recycled) materials or a community for their products. We need different governance models, different consumption habits and the feeling of urgency to change our way of living.
In this program six innovative projects are being presented and we start the conversation with experts within the field of Distributed Design. How can designers do what they love, make a positive impact and make a living? How do we move from small-scale initiatives to much-needed societal changes? An evening about sustainable idea-to-market strategies.
