Design Intersections: Design + Networks + Activation

Design increases its impact when it intersects and integrates other disciplines. For many years, ID has convened designers and business and social leaders to explore the implications of current design issues for key industries. Held in 2019, the “Design + Networks + Activation” conference focused on the intersection of data and design, bringing together designers, executives, strategists, policymakers, entrepreneurs, and other diverse leaders across industries and sectors (including education, food, finance, government, healthcare, insurance, mobility, technology) to explore how we can activate networks through activism, entrepreneurship, and leadership and achieve large scale impact. Student team: Andre Nogueira, Jessica Jacobs, and Irem Tekogul. Programmer (faculty): Carlos Teixeira.
