Beyond Boundaries: Technology, Design and the Future of Innovation
Technology is changing the way we design almost everything, from products and services to education, business and lives.
Join us at HIVE HQ for an evening of networking and conversation with four respected leaders in design and technology as they share insights on the future of creativity, innovation, and emerging technologies. Through an interactive Q&A, explore how design is evolving in an increasingly digital world, and what opportunities this creates for Whanganui and beyond.
Our Q&A panel are:
Tom Eslinger: is an internationally recognised creative leader and former Global Creative Director of Saatchi & Saatchi, known for shaping global brands and championing design-led innovation.
Michelle Excell: is a technology consultant and digital strategist who works with organisations to harness emerging technologies and build practical pathways for innovation and growth.
Khai Seng Hong: is an international design leader and founder of Studio Dojo, recognised for his work advancing transdisciplinary design and helping organisations solve complex challenges through collaboration.
Michael Law: is the founder of HIVE HQ, a technology entrepreneur, and Deputy Mayor of Whanganui who is helping shape the region's growing innovation and technology ecosystem.
