Stand up inspiration

This year, the European Design Festival is held in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. I'm very honored to present the three day conference on the 28th, 29th and 30th of may. The festival has much more to offer besides the conference: a design award, exhibitions and designwalks. The Rotterdam design scene has really welcomed the festival and the program is richer and more exciting than ever before. There are parallel activities to choose from, from dusk till dawn.

I've attended all previous editions of the festival, first in Athens, later in Stockholm and Zürich, and I love the informality of the festival. The conference hosts speakers from all parts of Europe, presenting really interesting developments in design from the east, alongside more established design cultures from the west.

This years speakers are: Fantasy Interactive, Sweden, Bauer keg, Austria, MnP, Greece, Jacek Utko, Poland, Dietwee, the Netherlands, Zup Associati, Italy, Raffinerie, Switzerland, Bleed, Norway, Moving Brands, UK, Astrid Stavro, Spain, Yurko Gutsyliak, Ukraine, Kustaa Saksi, Finland, 4 für Texas, Germany, Philippe Apeloig, France.
