Hi and welcome to my experience portal!
What is CID?
What is creativity, innovation and design? The foundation of almost everything that touches human life in all areas of existence.
I founded this platform so that I could discover & demonstrate the value & impact of creativity, innovation and design (CID) in business & society. This serves not only to inform and inspire, but also to invite others with stronger voices and opinions to share theirs so that collectively we can showcase that the arts are as important as the sciences.
This platform seeks to serve us in several ways including a members area with groups and a forum, experience portals such as this one, networks and communities and training and mentoring.
You can read more about the foundation of Design in Focus in our Editorial Gallery.

Along the way, I have met some incredible people doing some amazing stuff. I wanted to elevate their voices, but due to building a platform (designing, developing and managing) I currently can not talk to them all. Thus the Impact collective was launched just last week (17 April 2023).
On the Impact Collective portal I am collecting professionals who are actively working on, and talking about important topics. Our first Northstar is Robert Kozma - Author of Make the world a better place. Design with passion, purpose and values, and he will be using the platform to continue the conversation.

We also have the Levelup Collective, Female Collective, Mammas & Pappas Collective, Empower Hour Collective and the Youth League Collective in the backlog which take similar structures as the Impact Collective.
There are indeed many ways to discover and demonstrate the value & impact of CID in business & society. And I'm working to activate and launch all of them, so that others may easily do the same, thereby showcasing our work, minds, and activities, which all make up our designed world.
In August 23 I organised the Design for Tomorrow Awareness' Initiative. It went very well and we organised over 60 events featuring industry leaders such as Don Norman and Sean Carney.
