About this Event

Creative Courage is at the heart of every design and business success story. It is an instinct and mindset that has guided the achievements of this year's international line-up of thought provoking speakers and panellists. Join us at the Design Leaders Conference 2025 and learn how bravery and persistence has informed their success and rediscover how you can harness these same qualities in your own creative work and leadership.


This year's conference brings together senior designers, creative directors, and design leaders at every level. Don't miss this opportunity to be inspired, talk shop, share challenges and spend valuable time with your peers. Take your seat for just one day on the 30th of January at the big screen in the Light House Cinema, help us uncover the real stories that drive significant projects and learn how creative courage is essential for design leadership and for all our futures.
