Mentoring Designers: supporting the COVID generation

Continuing BIDA’s design in extraordinary times webinar series, we are bringing together a number of older and younger voices from design to discuss design industry mentoring.  Whilst there are a number of mentoring initiatives and plenty of informal mentoring going on in the design industry, the impacts of the current COVID pandemic situation demand further action.

Speakers include:

Clive Grinyer, Head of Service Design, The RCA

Kirsty Dias, MD, PriestmanGoode

Nicola Westgarth-Flynn, Industrial Designer, PA consulting

Michael Hofmann & Anna Bernbaum, Imperial alumni

William Knight, Director, Renew Consulting  

Nat Maher, Founder - Kerning the Gap

BIDA’s ‘new voice for design’ declaration identified Creating a professional support network by and for young designers as a key initiative.  This webinar brings together leading design schools and students to discuss the challenges and opportunities and represents action to develop our declaration initiative.
