10 emerging designers attend DesignThinkers Vancouver free

With the support of our sponsors, the RGD has awarded 10 cash scholarships and free registration to emerging designers to attend DesignThinkers Vancouver this May 13-14.
Student RGDs and Associate RGDs were invited to submit a 30-second to 1-minute video expressing their enthusiasm for DesignThinkers Vancouver and why they wished to attend the conference.
Each of our sponsors selected a winner and provided $500 to help cover costs to attend.
