SUMMARY:Ánako 3D Printing Design Award for Solidarity 2026
DESCRIPTION:In humanitarian emergencies\, the absence of small\, practical tools can have disproportionate consequences.

Yet many of these objects remain unavailable\, not because they are complex\, but because they are not locally producible. \nIn this context\, WDO Member Ánako APS\, in collaboration with Prusa Research\, has launched the Ánako – 3D Printing Design Award for Solidarity 2026\, an international open call dedicated to the design of open-source\, 3D-printable solutions for humanitarian contexts. \nLearn more: https://www.anako.it/3daward%20-%20eng.html \nWDO Member: Ánako APS

SUMMARY:Moving Business by Design.
DESCRIPTION:Large organisations – whether corporations or public institutions – face the same challenge: building services that don’t just work\, but last. Service design is more than optimising individual touchpoints. It’s about solutions across the entire customer journey and about organisational change. And\, ultimately\, about a bigger question: how can business and government be designed around the people who use them? \nDesign as a Bridge Between Complexity and Impact \nThe second Moving Business by Design talk\, on 8 June 2026\, examines how service design creates real impact inside large organisations – from the customer journey to the transformation of entire structures. The focus is on the design\, technology and policy decisions that make truly usable services possible – and on how design can provide orientation even within the most complex systems. \n  \nWorld Design Capital 2026: Frankfurt Rhein/Main \nAs part of World Design Capital (WDC) 2026: Frankfurt Rhein/Main\, the four-part Moving Business by Design series brings the transformative power of design into sharp focus. Developed in partnership with IHK Frankfurt am Main\, the series positions design as a driver of transformation – in business and in society. \nLearn more\nWDO Member: German Design Council

SUMMARY:World Industrial Design Day FRM 2026
DESCRIPTION:The goal of World Industrial Design Day FRM is to explore the role of industrial design here and now. Can a specifically German tradition in the sense of the Werkbund\, Bauhaus\, and HfG Ulm still be effective in the present\, or does this—as often in the past—rather reflect the wishful thinking of designers? \nWhat is expected of design beyond mere styling? What role do we as designers have\, and what role do we want to play? How can we fulfill this role? What constitutes a good product today\, and what requirements must a truly sustainable product meet? \nThis event will explore these and other aspects together with experts from practice and research. \nLearn more and register: https://www.eventbrite.de/e/world-industrial-design-day-frm-2026-registrierung-1742207251789 \n
