Design Leaders Conference 2025 will be back for a full-day in-person event on January 30th 2025 at the Light House Cinema, Dublin, bringing together design leaders and industry experts who are shaping the future. It’s an opportunity to hear practical insights, talk shop, dig into challenges, develop new ideas, treat your teams and spend quality time with your peers.
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. Learn how bravery and persistence have informed their success and rediscover how you can harness these same qualities in your own creative work and leadership. Join us to uncover the real stories that drive significant projects and learn how creative courage is essential for design leadership and for all our futures.
