WHY DOES IT COST MONEY TO ATTEND IDC?
Putting together a high-quality event takes considerable preparation and resources. This is true of both in-person and virtual events. The IDC team (made up of volunteers and full time paid staff) has been working on this event for nearly a year leading up to now. Any proceeds generated by this event are directly re-invested in current and future IDSA programming, as well as off-setting costs associated with this event. We are endlessly grateful for your support!
Prices will increase as we get closer to the event dates. Don't delay. Secure your ticket at the lowest rate possible by purchasing soon.
When purchasing your IDC 2022 ticket, you also have the option to add on a small, tax-deductible donation to support the Design Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit providing educational opportunities for the advancement of the industrial design profession. Your donation helps the Design Foundation deliver free IDC registration to underrepresented and economically disadvantaged individuals through its Event Access Program.
