Design Matters' 24

Design Matters is a Copenhagen-based conference on digital design – made for designers, by designers. It is a place to gather together, share ideas, and discuss experiences. Design Matters involves a knowledgeable community of creative and curious minds who share the same drive and passion for digital design, technology, art, society, and sustainability. Since 2015, Design Matters has been sharing stories about new movements in design, giving inspiration to designers from all over the world, growing each year and reaching 1000 participants pre-Covid in 2019, and again from 2022 on. Design Matters landed for the first time in Tokyo in 2020, and in Mexico City and Lagos in 2023. Since 2020 Design Matters has hosted its conferences in a hybrid way – online & in-person. Watch the talks from all previous conferences on Design Matters +. We, at Design Matters, are designers and activists. This is why, every year, we bring on stage the most brilliant and skilled design practitioners to talk with honesty and passion about their experiences, challenges, successes, and failures. Our mission is to spark up the conversation about the work and the role of digital designers – now and in the future - and to build a global, diverse, and inclusive community where people connect and empower each other.
