About this Event

Works in Progress is a creative-high-energy speaker series featuring 6–8 lightning talks from designers, makers, and creative leaders. Each speaker has just 10-15 minutes to dive into a big idea: a personal story, a wild project, a creative breakthrough, or a design lesson that affected their trajectory.

Whether it’s a quick work share, a topic deep-dive, or a behind-the-scenes look at someone’s path — every talk is meant to spark inspiration, start conversations, and remind us that we’re all works in progress.


What to Expect:

• 6–8 dynamic speakers from across the creative and tech worlds

• Quick, engaging 10-minute presentations

• Topics that range from personal journeys to project breakdowns

• Mingling before and after the talks

• A great crowd of designers, technologists, students, and curious minds


Speaker Lineup TBA!
