Made North, a design conference ran by Culture North and the Design Council, is taking place at Liverpool’s excellent Foundation for Art and Creative Technology (or FACT) on 22 February.
We’re great advocates of the design industry across the UK getting some recognition – the further away from the Capital the better – so it’s nice to see a new conference for designers in the north of England.
It’s set to celebrate today’s innovators and provides a creative platform for presenting and debating ideas, processes and technology to inspire the future talent emerging from the north as well as new and established businesses.
Speakers include Daniel Charney, curator of the Power of Making exhibition at the V&A London; Alexandra Deschamps-Sonsino, co-founder of Tinker London and Designswarm, and Gareth Williams, senior tutor for the School of Design at London’s Royal College of Art.
