TESTIMONIALS
HOW Design Live has been a destination for creative professionals for nearly 30 years – but don’t just take our word for it.
— Ashlee Ritschdorff | Graphic Designer, Federal Signal
— Joe Stern | Creative Director NAVC
This was my first show and I definitely received more than I expected. There were many tips, and exercises thrown around that hold a lot of weight. As a graphic web designer, I forgot how much I love actual design. This show really inspired me to get back in touch with what I love.
— Frank Dyszler | Web Designer, Henry Schein, Inc.
This design conference was exactly what I needed at this point in my career! As a freelancer, I have been feeling isolated and stagnant. It was the shot in the arm that I needed to get motivated. The experience of “being with my people” was so inspiring. I look forward to attending the 2020 conference!
