IDZ Member Circles offer regular opportunities for networking and professional exchange – exclusively for our members.

The events, which take place both in person and remotely, foster the exchange of knowledge between IDZ members and provide additional know-how by inviting outside experts. We offer our members unique opportunities to promote their design excellence and thought leadership within our professional network, and get relevant feedback from design peers.

In addition, our exclusive in-person events provide high-level networking opportunities, help our members establish new business contacts and gain valuable insights through face-to-face conversations with design leaders.

Become a member of our professional network and get involved! Build up your knowledge, establish new business contacts and bring your own topics to both our exclusive formats and public events.
