Global Entrepreneurship Week features Dialogue Cafe!
Global Entrepreneurship Week brings together millions of young people from countries around the world to join a growing movement of entrepreneurial people, to generate new ideas and to seek better ways of doing things. It is a celebration of creativity and enterprise, which aims to inspire young people to think big and turn their ideas into reality. This year, events and activities are taking place in countries across six continents from 15-21 November.
There are literally thousands of events taking place across the globe – from online to face-to-face, and from large-scale competitions and events to intimate networking gatherings. For more information on events near you see here. It’s a fantastic opportunity for young people from around the world to come together to learn, share and collaborate.
We think this is an amazing initiative, and are really excited to see how Dialogue Cafe can take part in GEW this year!
The team have just got back from visiting Wroclaw for the first time. We met with our partners from EIT+ and visited some potential locations for the Dialogue Cafe which will open in Wroclaw early next year.
We’re taking the opportunity to speak to our partners in Wroclaw about bringing Dialogue Cafe to Poland. We are very excited indeed about opening our first Dialogue Cafe in Eastern Europe!
RE-DESIGNING DESIGN Friday the 24th September 5.30 – 7.00pm (CET)
The design industry is going through fundamental changes. Open design, down-loadable design and distributed design democratize the design industry, and imply that anyone can be a designer or a producer. On the other hand design methodology as a problem solving process has found new applications in a broad range of seemingly unrelated sectors. How will these trends impact the very essence of the design industry, including copyright issues, traditional business models and the role of the professional designer?

RE-DESIGNING THE WORLD AROUND US Thursday 23rd September 5.30pm – 7.00pm (CET)
Our domestic environment as well as the cities we live in is going to huge change due to fast technological developments. We start to live in smart cities and smart houses, networked with the rest of the world. Our notion of the quality of cities not only depends on the endowment of hard infrastructure (‘physical capital’), but increasingly on the availability and quality of knowledge, communication and social infrastructure, made accessible true technology. (‘intellectual and social capital’). What future scenario’s can we expect? What will or can be the impact on economical, social or environmental issue. What is the ideal design of the world around us?
Dialogue Cafe is facilitating dialogue between people from all walks of life, across the world, to address social issues ranging from youth literacy to urban development.
