Denna speed dating genomförs som en del av pressresan Skåne Design Stories, då nio internationella designjournalister/influencers är inbjudna att spendera tre dagar i Malmö och nordöstra Skåne för att uppleva allt från speed dating och matupplevelser med regionens spännande designers, till ett besök hos Kullaro + Hägghults diabasbrott och Wanås magiska skulpturpark.
Om Business speed dating
I samarbete med innovationsarenan CoDest inom Tourism in Skåne genomförs en serie nätverksträffar för att skapa möten mellan designers och företag från olika näringar.
Vid ett antal tillfällen under året kommer vi att hålla speed dating-event där formgivare ges möjligheten att träffa representanter från utvalda branscher – ett tillfälle att konkret hitta nya affärskontakter och affärsmöjligheter. Mötena sker utan förbehåll och deltagarna förbinder sig inte till något.
