Unlimited Symposium

The launch event for the inaugural triennial promises to be a highlight of the program.

September 16th, 2010

To kick off Unlimited: Designing for Asia Pacific, the Unlimited Symposium will feature an inspiring line-up of international speakers.

Aimed at designers and forward-thinking businesses, the event will present a variety of viewpoints on how creative thinking could shape the future of the Asia Pacific region.

Speakers will explore solutions that draw industries, governments and communities together to create profitable and sustainable places, products, systems and services.

CJ Lim, co-author of Smartcities + Eco-Warriors

Bunker Roy, Founder of the Barefood College, India

Paul Bennett, Managing Partner, Europe and Chief Creative Officer of IDEO
