2015 District Design Conferences:
- South | March 26–27, Orlando (in conjunction with NPE's International Plastics Showcase) Home Cooking—Designing, Manufacturing and Sourcing in the USA: The Southern District wants to take that idea of home cooking and dive into how corporations and entrepreneurs are designing, manufacturing and sourcing their products in the USA.
- West | April 10—11, San Jose TRIBE: CRAFT: Through exploration of design swarms, tribal brand-leading keynotes, panel discussions and maker-style workshops, consultants and corporate designers will learn tangible skills to sharpen their craft.
- Central | April 17—18, Columbus College of Art and Design The Nature of Design: Nature is arguably the greatest inspiration for designers all over the globe. We still have a lot to learn from the flora and fauna and the immense ideas that nature plays out every single day.
- Northeast | April 24—25, Boston DESIGN + ________: Design is a critical component of almost every solution, but not the only part. Complex problems require expertise in engineering, business, strategy, environment, marketing and research. The question is: when should you be a jack-of-all-trades and when should you collaborate?
- Midwest | May 1 – 2, St. Louis INTERSECTION: A common, but often underutilized, framework depicts “design innovation” at the intersection of business, technology and human values, sparking a dynamic conversation among attendees.
