EVENT DESIGN SUMMIT SPEAKER FACULTY ANNOUNCED – World’s leading conference on experience design set for Sept. 28-30 in Los Angeles
NORWALK, CT – (WiredPRNews.com) — The editors of Event Design magazine today announced the speaking faculty for this fall’s Event Design Summit, to be held September 28-30 in Los Angeles at the Hollywood & Highland Center.
Now in its fourth year, the Event Design Summit is the event and exhibit industry’s defacto learning conference, a three-day summit in which hundreds of designers, architects and creative directors meet, learn and share. “The realm of experience design is changing in real-time,” says Patrick Gorman, associate editor of Event Design magazine, which programs and produces the conference. “Never have designers been so accountable–and under so much pressure. They need to stay informed if they want to stay ahead.”

TRACK 1. Radar Screen. Deep dives into the new trends that are reshaping what you do and how you service clients. Critical trends, emerging trends.
TRACK 2. Efficiency Lab. Focuses on generating results with reduced budgets and manpower. A heavy lean on designing and executing within lower budgetary constraints.
