We’re excited to share the talks from Leading Design London 2019.

Our Leading Design conference is a unique opportunity for design leaders from across the globe to come together, learn, be inspired and connect with their peers. Held at the beautiful (and brutalist) Barbican Centre, the talks range from Design Ops, self-evaluation, diversity and much more. We hope you enjoy watching them as much as we did.
