About this event

Business • Design

Dear Guests,

We are delighted that you are joining us, alongside many other leaders and experts, at the Creative Industry Dialogue, taking place on October 22nd at Capital C in Amsterdam.


Across the Benelux, creativity is driving new frontiers in architecture, interior design, and material innovation. As global supply chains and markets rapidly evolve, new opportunities are emerging to connect Europe and Asia, particularly China, through design, production, and shared sustainability goals. In this dynamic context, China and Europe are working toward a more resilient and mutually supportive ecosystem.


This Dialogue aims to foster collaboration across the entire creative value chain. By bringing together voices from design, architecture, product innovation, and materials research, we hope to bridge creative vision with real-world design implementation. We believe that knowledge exchange, co-creation, and strategic partnerships are essential to scaling sustainable living, both in the short term and for generations to come.


The day begins with an inspiring briefing on current trends in design and sustainability. This is followed by the Global Link & Match, a unique opportunity to explore new markets and value chain collaborations. Thereafter, the Future Design Table invites participants to envision what sustainable living could look like in 2035. These ideas will be captured and shared on a Vision Wall. We close the day with networking and a hands-on session on international business communication, turning ideas into actionable partnerships.


We look forward to meaningful conversations, bold ideas, and lasting impact.
