Experience the world's leading creative
currency that's driving design for a better world with Design Indaba's iconic
annual conference.
The
Design Indaba conference, taking place in Cape Town from 21-23 February 2018, will
go beyond design to create a multi-sensory event where you can hear, see, learn
and experience the future of creative thinking and design activism. Awarded as
the Best Conference in the World, Design Indaba aims to make a positive impact
on society by building a movement that attracts producers of meaningful culture
and business, regardless of sector or industry.
