Hong Kong Design Centre

July 10, 2008 – 6:14 pm

The Hong Kong Design Centre is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping local designers and businesses to realise their full potential. Our mission is to use design and innovation to drive value creation and improve the well-being of society. Our vision is to establish Hong Kong as a centre of design excellence in Asia.

The Hong Kong Design Centre was established in 2001 by the Hong Kong Federation of Design Associations, the founding members of which are Hong Kong Designers Association, Interior Design Association Hong Kong, Hong Kong Fashion Designers Association, and the Chartered Society of Designers. Our principal financial supporter is the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government.

We organize year-round seminars, workshops and conferences, on the one hand, to promote awareness of the value of design and use of design in the business / industry communities and, on the other hand, upgrade the business and design expertise of design professionals and students. We promote design excellence and awareness by organizing prestigious design award schemes and exhibitions. Through joint efforts with Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation, we contribute to building InnoCentre’s facilities for design tenants and incubating design start-ups. We also provide professional input to the admission of tenants and incubatees to the InnoCentre and coaching of the latter.
