Design Talks at ICFF 2017 You Should Be Prepared For

[wp_ad_camp_2]

ICFF 2017 – If you’re a designer or an aspiring one, you may want to keep these design talks at your agenda next month!

ICFF 2017 has a reputation to maintain when it comes to inviting the world’s most incredible designers and architects to gather under the same roof. And there’s no way its 29th annual edition next month would be disappointing. Taking place from May 21st to 24th, ICFF will provide visitors a unique four-day program that counts not only with the most innovative design exhibitions but also interesting design talks for the industry’s professionals.

The Javis Center in New York City will be an authentic forum of furniture design, where visitors can get access to the latest trends in the industry, at the same time, have a life-time opportunity to network with big fishes in the market, and get new perspectives on business.

So after some research we selected 5 conferences we believe to be of value to assist, it doesn’t mean the others aren’t, because it was pretty difficult to choose! If you have the time we totally recommend you to assist every single one of them but these are the ones you definitely can’t miss next month.
