Town hall in support of student and intern members

  • Have you experienced the impact of the economic recession of the early 1980s, the 2000s or the financial crisis in 2008 as a designer or business owner? Do you have a personal story that could help uplift and inspire the next generation of interior designers? What survival strategies helped you through your career challenges?

 Send your pitch (in 200 words of less) for IDC’s ‘Tales of Resilience’ Town Hall: empathic personal stories of surviving and thriving through industry crises. The Town Hall will  be presented as a virtual panel discussion for students and interns who are embarking on interior design careers during this unprecedented time in our industry and history.
