2024 DDW Digital Future - Dinner & Conference

Join us for a spectacular industry dinner, conference and networking event at The Effenaar - the official program of DDW Mission Day: Digital Future.

During this event, we bring together designers, innovators, young creatives and the (inter)national creative community. Connect with creative partners and clients, both national and international, as well as top industry leaders. Join us on this creative journey into the digital future.

16:00 - 17:30 Conference: ‘Global Gamechangers – Digital Future’

The conference dives into the topic of design, soft tech and AI from a global perspective. Technology makes the world smaller, yet we seem more distant from each other and indifferent than, let's say, a decade ago. Shouldn’t we redefine our relation with the world (and nature) around us, as well as the relation with the people and the technology we interact with on a daily basis. How can technology and AI bring back more color and understanding in society, to create a human, more natural touch. What does our new nature look like when we let AI design it?

Information about speakers and topics will be shared in early October.

17:30 - 19:00 Networking Drinks

After nourishing our brains during the conference, it is time for the speakers and the audience to come together and get to know each other better while enjoying a bite and a drink. Expand your network, meet new people and share your knowledge and skills.

19:00 - 22:00 Creative Industry Dinner Experience
