While Karin Aue will explore designers' role in working at intersections of stakeholder needs, business goals, behaviour, policy, technology in space of sustainability. Her talk is titled:

​"NAVIGATING THE MESSY MIDDLE - DESIGN'S ROLE IN SUSTAINABLE TRANSITIONS"

We have exciting speakers to explore intersections between service design, organisational design and innovation leadership. Intersections are where ideas collide and fringes are explored. Intersections are where the insights emerge that generate sparks and create spaces for innovation. Join us to explore such intersections where different disciplines meet and create space for the new to emerge. We have three great speakers who have years of experience in space of leadership development, organisational development and innovation from legendary organisations of Singapore's public sector:

The Innovation Myth - Innovation is often treated as an unquestioned good - but when growth becomes excess and convenience erodes responsibility, it’s time to rethink.

This talk challenges the myth of innovation and “good design,” examining how designers have normalized overconsumption and convenience. In the age of AI, it proposes a new paradigm rooted in restraint, accountability, and care.
