We are honoured to be the partner of DTIA Practitioners’ Get-together 2018 that was organised by Design Thinking in Action-Asia, supported by DesignSingapore Council held in Singapore on 27-28 Oct. A weekend packed with brilliant insights and invigorating discussions among the design thinking community from different parts of the world!

As a follow-up to the Design Thinking in Action-Asia Get-together, DBCS organised and hosted the first drinks and dialogue for the DT practitioners in Singapore on 14 Nov. It was attended by a good mix of those from the public and private sectors (including a non-profit organisation). Everyone contributed to the potluck spread and lively discussions.

The most wonderful time of the year where we take the opportunity to appreciate the EXCO & Secretariat together with their spouses for their tireless contribution to another successful year!
