German Design Council Foundation

October: New Members in Our Network

We welcome four new companies to the German Design Council Foundation. They strengthen the diversity of our network and share our ambition: to understand design as a strategic resource and to actively shape change. That is what the foundation thrives on. It also supports the next generation that will carry this future forward. Every foundation membership supports initiatives such as German Design Graduates and the German Design Awards Newcomer.
