What is the Service Design Award?
The Service Design Award is the premier international award for service design, founded by the Service Design Network in 2015. The Award recognises work of an exceptional standard in the field of service design by both students and professionals. As the field of service design continues to grow and develop, and as the impact of services and customer experience is increasingly recognised on a global scale, the Service Design Award showcases best practice to a worldwide audience.
The SDN will look to celebrate the incredible achievements of our finalists and ultimate winners during the Service Design Global Conference which is slated to take place this year in Helsinki from October 2-4. This is an opportunity for you and the amazing contributions you have made to shine. Please consider taking the time to review your past projects, decide which one illustrates your best work and submit your project today!
