We hosted many successful meetups over the last years. Each was covering a theme on the intersection of Design x Tech with 2-3 short talks by professionals followed by in-depth conversations engaging everyone. These gatherings became a cornerstone of our community.

But it just an evening. What might we do if we had a bit more time?

Technology is transforming who we are. At the beginning of the next decade, how might we peek into the future?

There are well-developed methods for that. Speculative Design. Social Dreaming. Sensemaking. We invite you to join us for two days, over the weekend, to explore a future.

When

• 18th Jan, 9 AM - 8 PM - Sharing Day. Eight speakers sharing their vision of a future, lunch, and improv session in the middle.
• 19th Jan, 9 AM - 8 PM - Hands-on day.

1. The Speculative Design workshop by Stephanie Lukito, 9 AM to 4 PM.
2. LEGO Serious Play by Iva Sladic Keco, 5 PM to 8 PM.

Why

The propose of the whole event is to inspire and facilitate the creation of protopias: prototypes of a realistic positive future. The workshops are about putting all the ideas into tangible prototypes so that in the end, everyone walks away with one or a few well developed protopias.

Who

We are Design and Tech professionals: UX Designers, Product Managers, Industrial Designers, Design Thinking Facilitators, Strategy Consultants. Our day jobs are all about Digital Transformation and Innovative products. If we learn anything is that without a vision, nobody should expect an innovative outcome.

The common versions of the futures are bleak. It often looks like a gloomy, steadily raining version of Hong Kong or a lifeless post-apocalyptic desert.

We are professionals facilitators and put together this impossible event at the price of a venue without any corporate or government sponsors. So that we might ask you:

How does a positive, realistic, exciting future look like for you?
