Design at the Speed of Business 5: HOT SOUTH, COOL CREATIVITY aspires to break the mold of the traditional conference syndrome of active speakers and a passive audience. Professional designers, educators, and students will “interactively” apply the tools and methods they experience in morning lectures and hands on afternoon team “creative business” breakout sessions to develop thought provoking, real world design solutions. Creativity in design is the fuel that will drive the business engine of the future. Sustainable Design nurtures a company's relationship with its customers by helping clients design products that can be perpetually recycled, reinvented and leased again and again to a customer base. Creative and sustainable design methods are eco-effective, regenerative solutions and strategies that create environmental health, abundance, and makes a positive impact ecologically, socially, and economically.
