China collaborates with India at the World Industrial Design Conference recently held in China, to come together to benefit from collective experience of Global Design Leaders.
A galaxy of world design leaders from 26 countries and regions attended the recently concluded World Industrial Design Conference (WIDC) 2016 held in the Liangzhu District of Hangzhou in China. Co-founded by the China Industrial Design Association (CIDA), this global event was an important platform for communication and cooperation in the field of design, and saw participants exchange diverse views on industrial design based on their own considerable experience.
India was represented by Prof. Pradyumna Vyas (Member Secretary of India Design Council and Director, National Institute of Design), Shrikant Nivasarkar (Governing Board Member, National Institute of Design) and Sudhir Sharma (Editor in Chief, POOL Magazine), who spent three fruitful days engaged in debates on the issues affecting the global design industry. Prof. Pradyumna Vyas was among the four speakers who made key note speeches at the inaugural session; he traced the history of design in India, with emphasis on social development projects, and also presented an overview of design industry and education in India.
