The Product Design Gala is an annual seminar celebrating the hard work done during the year. Final results of the interdisciplinary Product Development Project course (www.pdp.fi) are featured to the public. In addition to seminar sessions the audience is welcome to get familiar with the teams and take a closer look at the prototypes. This year we are also hosting projects from the Design for Extreme Affordability course and Product Innovation Project in TU Graz, Austria. The event is part of the official World Design Capital program.
