CLICKNL Presents
Design Innovation Sessions | DDW 2026
20 - 22 October | Dutch Design Week, Eindhoven
CLICKNL organises the Design Innovation Sessions from Tuesday 20 to Thursday 22 October (11.15 - 12.30) at Natlab. Across three morning sessions, each day focuses on a different theme. Expect the crème de la crème of design-driven research, urgent societal challenges, inspiring speakers and a shared networking lunch afterwards.
Last year, the event was fully booked every day well before it started. So this year, we have chosen to host three larger sessions instead of five. Moving to a larger venue allows us to welcome more visitors and create more space for exchange and new connections.
Registration for a session opens in September: want to secure your spot? Sign up using the pre-registration form. You’ll receive a notification when registration opens.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The Design Innovation Sessions bring together design, research, and practice to explore how design-driven approaches can contribute to societal change and innovation. Through keynotes, inspiring projects, and collaborative conversations, we look at how these approaches are being applied to complex challenges, from health and wellbeing to circular economy and sustainable transitions.
Which emerging methods and applications can redefine existing knowledge and practices? And how can design, design research, and innovation contribute to meaningful change?
(This event is part of Dutch Design Week’s Mission Days: a specially curated programme for a professional audience.)
The language of this event is English.
