The DRIVE Festival at DDW '21 & More
It's time for another round of Dutch Design Week news, but this time with a focus on CLICKNL’s Design Research & Innovation Festival (aka the DRIVE Festival). Together with Design United – the 4TU, CLINKNL has put together a hybrid and interactive event that can be enjoyed in person or from the comfort of your home.
At the DRIVE festival research projects at the interface of knowledge and innovation will take the stage from 10:30 – 11:30 daily between the 18th to 22nd of October.
Design United, CLICKNL, the World Design Embassies, as well as designers, researchers, and other organisations, will present on the state of art research, design, and innovation in connection with the event’s five themes: Mobility, Circular and Biobased Building, Health, Safety, and Food/Water.

We have one more Dutch Design Week tidbit for you this week. It isn’t related to the DRIVE Festival, but it's definitely worth checking out.
On 20 October from 14:00 – 16:00 at the Klokgebouw, IDE Professor of Mobility Design Matthijs van Dijk will lead the Embassy of Mobility – Conference at DDW. The World Design Embassies’ conference will look at how we can correct design errors in mobility and come up with more viable forms of it.
