Service Design Global Conference October 2021
SDGC21 Moves to a Digital Format
|
|
|
|
After close consultation with our local Danish partners and the global service design community we, at the SDN, have made the difficult decision to cancel the in-person Service Design Global Conference 2021 (SDGC21) previously scheduled to take place in Copenhagen on April 22-23, 2022. Continued travel restrictions and concerns over our community's health and well-being have been the driver of this decision.
Nevertheless, we are excited to announce that we will host a virtual conference on October 21-22, 2021.
Stay tuned for more details in the coming months to ensure you don’t miss out!
