Why, how and what #designdrives forward.
 

MISSION

Empower and inspire creatives to reach their full potential.

Designdrives explores why, how and what design(ers) drives forward.

Together with design leaders and forward-thinking design practitioners around the world we explore the value of design for business and society - and how designers can drive positive contributions to the world.

Together with the experts we reveal the stories of designers that use their craft, perspective and methodologies to move the world forward and learn their process, thinking and approach.

Besides the regular podcast episode format Designdrives has extended into a conference format called DDX in early 2020 during Munich Creative Business Week which celebrated a sold-out start. More to come.

Sebastian Gier

Sebastian started #designdrives with the mission to empower designers in driving things forward. The goal is to help designers learn the tools, methods and approaches in becoming the most effective creative and inspire how they make a positive contribution to humans, planet, technology or organisations.

Besides Designdrives, Sebastian is also a former Designer at BMW Group working on future mobility experiences. He is frequently speaking at conference, recently at New York Design Week, UX India, Design Shanghai, IXDA’s Interaction Conference in Milan, IDSA’s International Design Conference in Chicago and many more. His personal design work has been recognised by over 20 design awards and he gave lectures and mentorship to students at different universities like RCA in London.
