Every year 3TU.School for Technological Design, Stan Ackermans Institute organizes several SAI Design Cafés. The Design Cafés are meant for PDEng trainees, their supervisors and other interested parties. The aim of the Design Cafés is to facilitate the (informal) exchange of knowledge about design and thus inspire (potential) designers and anyone who wants to find out more about design.
If you have an interesting idea or topic for a Design Café, please mail to sai@3tu.nl.
