Report from the World Design Capital Cape Town 2014 Design Policy Conference

A report on the Design Policy Conference in Cape Town last October has just been released and has some fascinating insights into design and innovation policy.

“This event serves as a platform to discuss and provide insights into the current South African  design and innovation policy opportunities. It builds stronger links and creates networking opportunities among national, regional and international stakeholders, and it provides a venue for designers, entrepreneurs and policy makers to interact, innovate and shape the future of the South African and, more broadly, African policy landscape. This is critically needed as design becomes fuel to the knowledge-driven economy across the continent.” Brandon Gien, Icsid President, CEO Good Design Australia and ADA member.
