Conference
An international conference connecting Japanese and European design communities, providing professional knowledge, practical skills, and industry know-how.
How is design different in Asia and Europe? What is design like in Japan and Poland? What are the cultural, environmental, and market differences in design around the world? How can you work and grow your business locally and internationally? What are the cultural differences, professional challenges, and opportunities in Asia and Europe? The first edition of the TDN conference in Tokyo will answer these questions.
The Design Network Conf features practical lectures, industry presentations, and stories from the market shared by experienced designers from Japan, Poland, France and United Kingdom.
