Why Design Leaders?

As design moves from nice-to-have to being increasingly appreciated as having key strategic value for companies and organisations, design teams are growing, often rapidly, and design professionals are playing increasingly importantly leadership roles.

Who's it for?

Real World Knowledge

For well over a decade, Web Directions has been holding conferences for web and digital creators, both for engineering as well design professionals.

Each of our conferences features real world, actionable knowledge, from leading practitioners, from around Australia and the world.

Can't make it to Melbourne?

If you focus on design, but can't make it to Melbourne in April, then don't despair, the Web Directions Culture, in Sydney in November 2018 focusses on leadership, and creating great cultures.

About Us

Co-founded and now run by John Allsopp, Web Directions has for over a decade brought together leading developers, engineers, visual, IxD, UX and product designers, Art and Creative Directors, indeed everyone involved in producing web and digital products to learn from one another, and the World's leading experts across this vast field.

We spend our lives thinking about what comes next, keeping up with trends in technology, practices and processes, and filtering the hype, to make sure you don't miss trends that matter, and don't waste time on hype that doesn't.

We promise attending one of our events will leave you significantly better versed in the challenges you face day to day, and in solutions for addressing them.
