DesignThinkers

The Vancouver
Playhouse

May 13 – 14
2025

Design is a force.

One that shapes how we see the world. With every choice, we hold the power to break barriers, challenge convention, and shift perspectives. But not if we don’t question our own.

So we’re here to give the industry a perception interception. And unlock potential through perspective. Because if you’re stuck in the same ways of seeing, you might be missing out.

Through always moving, morphing, adapting and evolving, we’re not just embracing shift in our industry, we’re here to shape it. Welcome to DesignThinkers 2025. Shift is about to go down.
