Preserving the Past, Pioneering the Future

Explore industry trends and pioneering ideas from leaders in the Design and Make community. Theater sessions feature short talks on critical themes, from AI and the future of work to business resiliency in a time of digital transformation. Walk-ins are welcome. The past is the foundation for our present—and our potential. Whether you're talking about existing structures that we can repurpose for the future, historical artifacts that can inform our understanding of ourselves today, or circular approaches to managing finite resources, learn how we can redefine concepts of waste, combine experience with current data to create new possibilities, and use new technologies and approaches to do more with what exists—and what existed long ago.
