Knowledge of Design Week (KODW), June 25 - 29 at Hotel Icon, presents an opportunity for businesses and organizations to exchange ideas on creative design. Focusing on the latest design engineering, applications and strategies, the conference aims at providing a platform for design exchange and education.

Highlighted events include the "Ageing and Design Conference," which features speakers from around the world sharing people-centered design solutions with an age-inclusive attitude.

"Global Design Strategy" is a forum for expanding businesses into new markets where consumer needs are fast-changing; speakers will discuss innovation flexibility in new product and service development.

The conference also features 13 workshops, including "Design in the Dark" and "Design in Silence", which integrate visually or audibly impaired experience with design practice application.

For all whose work relate closely with design, KODW is a chance for new stimulation and possible business opportunities. Further information about the event can be found at www.hkdesigncentre.org/kodw.
