Following the first highly successful conference in Seoul in 2004, DMI, DBMS and IPS-BMI are pleased to announce the second international conference in Seoul dedicated to promoting the importance of design management. Once again, three organizations from different nations are joining forces to promote a single mission of raising the awareness of the importance of brand and design management within corporations.

 

The Conference on Strategic Innovation and Creativity in Design Management will be a forum for exchanges of ideas and best practices among participants from around the world, and the conference proceedings and results will help participants better understand ways to manage the design management and innovation process. The conference will feature papers and presentations addressing the overarching theme of innovation and creativity in design management, including those focused on theory-building and empirical research as well as case studies.

 

Individuals from businesses, government agencies, academia, or other parties are all invited to attend this event. The program will comprise a keynote presentation, panel discussions with key opinion-formers in the field, program tracks, and poster sessions.
