SPEAKER INSIGHTS
" Organisations that have existing design capacity were able to respond very quickly and helped explored immediate solutions to pressing problems... it shows that investing in design makes society more resilient to unexpected shocks."
What is Next for Design – Now, Near and Far
Tim Brown
Chair, IDEO, US
" The people often bring really important value in projects and cultures, and what they see and their craftsmanship are only able to be passed on to the next generation by hand... so in the circularity of making, it is really important to have that as one of the first priorities, because people have talents and they’re also the most important resource that we have."
Circular Magic in Nature, People and Planet
Elaine Yan Ling Ng
Founder, THE FABRICK LAB , HK
" The only way to make sustainable places is to make the places that people love. You can’t tell someone that something’s sustainable and sort of show them data, because for public places, the data is whether people love it and want to be there."
Places for people
Thomas Heatherwick CBE
Founder, Heatherwick Studio, UK
" Easing passengers’ journeys and making them contactless will be key to the design of big airports and stations, making journeys secure and safe but also seamless and enjoyable because we’ve got to bring that enjoyment back into travel."
Designing Tomorrow's Travel Experience
Paul Priestman
Designer, Co-founder & Chairman, PriestmanGoode, UK
" There’s a danger of people predicting what people want as designers or artists... we need to work with the people we’re doing the work for – we should listen to people and then work together to make better works and improve our world."
A New Now
Morag Myerscough
Artist/Designer, UK
" You have to be able to understand that sophisticated innovation, the kind of works, is inherently a team sport. You need talent from business schools, you need talent from engineering schools, and you need talent from design schools in order to get things right."
Connected Health: People-Centred Innovation
Larry Keeley
Innovation Scientist & Author of Ten Types of Innovation, US
" The combination of the digital, handmade and personal will be the interesting evolution in terms of design thinking."
TOMorrow: Designer Brands after 2020
Tom Dixon OBE
Designer & Creative Director, Tom Dixon, UK
" So if everybody’s buying products online, what is the purpose of shopping (at physical shops)? What’s the purpose of a (physical) shop? We as human beings need to socialise. These palaces of purchasing called shopping malls will no longer be places where we just buy products. They’ll be places where we go to meet to exchange news."
Melting the Boundary: Live/Work
Keith Griffiths
Chairman & Global Design Principal, Aedas, HK
" For me, the work of AI is not just to mimic the work of humans. I think we should find a way to cooperate with AI to do something that humans cannot do. So the process inspires us to do the next."
Design x Art x Tech: Stroke of Human Touch
Victor Wong
Founder, vfxNova, HK
