The IWIPS 2010 theme of Global Design Communities is all about bringing together diverse cultures and people who now, through social media are successfully collaborating, sharing, contributing, cross fertilising, building connections, building better products, and building better lives.
IWIPS prides itself on the fact that it also provides delegates with the opportunity to develop their skills, increase their knowledge, and create and strengthen their international networks.
The IWIPS 2010 Agenda is currently in the planning stages; an open call for papers and tutorials has begun. The final Agenda, a programme of highly interactive forums; includes presented papers (research & case studies), break-out sessions, keynotes, panel discussions and tutorials, will be announced in March 2010.
IWIPS is a truly international workshop. Since its beginning in 1999, IWIPS has attracted delegates from more than 30 countries and six continents (we are still waiting for a delegate from Antarctica!).
Costs to delegates are kept as low as possible, to ensure that those from overseas or without substantial institutional or corporate support can attend. The month of July, was carefully chosen to accommodate a break in teaching that coincides internationally.
We know that you have to be selective when choosing a conference for 2010 – we hope it is IWIPS 2010! We promise you will not be disappointed
