COVID-19 Update

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Design Futures Initiative (DFI) Board of Directors and PRIMER2020 organizing team have made the difficult decision to cancel the in-person gathering in June and proceed with a virtual format.

We feel this is the right decision under the circumstances, though it is painful after all of the effort that has already gone into planning to host the international design futures community in Atlanta. We are very grateful for the continued efforts of our volunteer organizing team in these unprecedented circumstances.

Though it will be different, we are nonetheless excited about the unique opportunities this new approach affords us. We remain committed to hosting a conference that empowers our community and the world to activate better futures, especially in such uncertain times.

Look out for more information on changes to the conference on the this website and social media channels in the coming days and weeks! Emerging Designer Exhibition is still on and we’ll be exhibiting all works in a digital format.
