Programme
IIID conferences are traditionally set out to create a shared experience for all participants, and to provide a chance for everyone to hear about aspects of information design they might not naturally be drawn to. Therefore, there will be no parallel sessions, but plenty of time for interaction and discussion. The sessions will be a mix of 10 and 20-minute presentations with Q&A and discussions after each session.
