ABOUT BODW
2019 Partner country:

United Kingdom

In collaboration with our partner country, the UK, the 2019 edition of Business of Design Week will take on the theme ‘Design the Future, Create Tomorrow’. From fashion to film, architecture to advertising, UK creatives have a well-earned reputation for challenging conventions and embracing the new with professionalism and flair. Together, we will investigate how design and design thinking will affect how we live, work, play and learn in the future.
