HONG KONG DESIGN CENTRE
Hong Kong Design Centre (HKDC) is an independent non-profit organisation founded in 2001 with support from the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and the Hong Kong Jockey Club. Its objective is to encourage and promote design excellence with a vision to establish Hong Kong as a design hub in the international arena.
HKDC has four founding members, namely:
- Hong Kong Designers Association
- Chartered Society of Designers, Hong Kong
- Interior Design Association Hong Kong
- Hong Kong Fashion Designers Association
HKDC works with the government, industry, business partners, educational institutions and design associations to promote design as a strategic, value-adding element of business. They also work to increase awareness within the wider community of how design can contribute to our quality of life. HKDC is the first Hong Kong organisation dedicated to encouraging, inspiring, supporting and facilitating the best use of design; thus, contributing to the sustainable competitiveness, economic prosperity and overall well-being of Hong Kong.
HKDC actively organises events promoting the use of good design in business. The annual flagship event, Business of Design Week is a leading international design gathering featuring a conference, exhibitions, seminars and prestigious design awards. In addition throughout the year a wide range of networking, educational, research, promotional and publication activities take place. These provide a strong platform for Hong Kong designers to flourish and for ideas, knowledge and information to be shared among the design community both locally and internationally. HKDC also maintains strong association and communication links with international design organisations, further contributing to the promotion and brand image of Hong Kong as a world class city.
