IDS Conference IDS20 is expanding its two day conference to talk about the transformative power of design, covering four themes: Business of Design, Future of Work, Future of Living and Technology.

Business of Design
What do you need to start a business? How do you deal with growth, marketing, accounting and the customer experience? This conference stream will be a practical guide for running and maintaining a thriving business.

Future of Work
We are in a time of technological evolution and demographic change. What will the office, and its inhabitants, look like in five, 10, even 50 years? This stream will gather stakeholders from the design industry and beyond to explore solutions for the pressing issues facing businesses and their workforce.

Future of Living
How will our public and private spaces shape our future? How do we design with empathy for humanity and our fragile planet? Are modern needs forming or fracturing our communities? This stream will uncover new ways of living and challenge the processes and policies we work within.

Technology
Technology is evolving every industry, and change is a constant. How do you create client trust in technology? How do you seamlessly integrate technology into a space? How, when and where is technology best utilized? And how do you leverage new techniques to future proof your business? We are brokering conversations with futurists, innovators, leaders and disruptors on the transformative power of design and how it will change the way we live, work and experience our surroundings.
