Description

The concept of an in-house design agency has emerged in recent years, elevating the role of designers and creative teams from service providers to creative strategists. Join our panel as they look at what this shift means for in-house teams and how we can leverage and promote this concept in our organizations.

- How has the role of in-house design teams evolved in the last decade? Are companies seeing the value of in-house design more now than before?
- Has the pandemic created new opportunities for in-house designers in terms of the work they do and new ways to grow?
- What advice do you have for those looking to grow their in-house teams? How can they demonstrate the value of design within their companies?
- What does it mean to run your in-house team like an agency? Is there an ideal structure?
