mcbw annual theme 2024: „How to co-create with nature“

Together with our partners and other interested parties, we set out to explore the many ways in which design can help us (re-)learn how to work in partnership with nature, to accept it as a co-designer, and to live and grow side by side with it: collaboration instead of domination. To steer these reflections in a distinct direction, we have coined a tagline that sums up our concern and our mission for the future in a nutshell: "How to co-create with nature".

Welcome to mcbw

The munich creative business week will take place again in May 2024 in Munich. During the 9 days, the creative scene will meet to learn about the latest trends, technologies and innovations around the different design disciplines, to exchange ideas and to network.
