 The DesignThinkers conference (Toronto + Vancouver) brings together visionaries from a range of disciplines to explore creativity, design process, and the future of design. The 2023 theme was designed to provoke questions, create rich conversation, and act as a catalyst to influence and inform content from keynote speakers. Taking inspiration from an industry always in-flux, it references a variety of design processes, tools, technologies, and styles. An eclectic set of open-source materials highlights the democratization of design and brings with it a playful sense of optimism looking forward. The liquid metal question mark is the cornerstone of the identity, symbolizing the undefined formlessness of the future and the ability to morph and adapt.Services
