Hebei International Industrial Design Week 2018 (HIDW for short) made its debut on NY Times Square Screen on 30th September, 2018, voicing another momentous sign of the achievement on industry transformation driven by industrial design after Hebei’s release of “Measures on Supporting Industrial Design Development”. Hebei Industrial Design Innovation Center (HIDC for short), established on 26th April, 2018, is regarded as a critical innovation engine for accelerating the integration and development of Hebei industrial design and manufacturing by the paths of design atmosphere building, industry matching and platform forging. Enjoying the reputation of the carrier of Hebei industrial design’s “Enlightenment Movement”, HIDC has vitalized the Hebei manufacturing industry through a series of events called “Design Lecture” and “Design & Industry Matching Conference” within 6 months.

Areas of culture and creativity, business, technology, maker, architecture, Internet, AI, and urban planning could be increasingly energized by the development of industrial design and innovation. Among all the blossoms of industrial design, HIDW stands out as it makes industrial design visible and prevailing.
