With the theme "Design - Chain of Future Industry", the World Industrial Design

Conference 2022 (WIDC 2022) will be held on November 13-14, 2022 in Yantai

City, Shandong Province. The WIDC is organized by the Shandong Provincial

Department of Industry and Information Technology, the China Industrial Design

Association and the Yantai Municipal People's Government. It will be co-hosted

by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Shandong

Provincial People's Government, and supported by the United Nations Industrial

Development Organization (UNIDO) and the Global Design Industry Organization

(GDIO).

The WIDC 2022 highlights the significant role of industrial design at the front

end of the value chain and upstream of the industry chain, according to the

Organizing Committee. The WIDC 2022 will be held both online and offline in

more than 40 countries and regions. During the event, scientists, entrepreneurs

and celebrated designers will offer insights into the latest trends and

industry applications of industrial design. The most recent innovations,

industry applications and commercialization solutions from China and other

parts of the world will be showcased. Concurrently, the China Excellent

Industrial Design Awards will be presented and award-winning projects will be

exhibited.

As the premier summit for the industrial design sector, the WIDC has been held

in Yantai for four consecutive years, impelling Yantai to establish itself as a

strong manufacturing presence and a city renowned for its industrial design

strength. Yantai will also capitalize on this opportunity to transform the WIDC

into a professional platform where prestigious individuals exchange ideas,

multiple resources gather, and outcomes are transferred and translated.

Furthermore, Yantai will establish online and offline mechanisms for

multi-faceted cooperation. There will be a focus on the identification of

chain-based key enterprises and major projects; and intensive matching of

industrial parks, enterprises and research institutes will be undertaken. There

will be more opportunities offered for cooperation, and talented professionals

will be encouraged and motivated to become involved in the design sector. All

these initiatives aim to further improve the delivery of industrial designs and

help Yantai grow into a World Design Capital.
