Invented by Helsinki Design Week, Nordic Design Diplomacy boldly combines traditional diplomacy with informal dialogue, how design is used to share different perspectives on culture and values. This time, these conversations invite two professionals in the field to share their experiences and perspectives working in different cultural contexts, in the Nordics and the USA. 

Nordic Consul Generals will host talks with Nordic and American design professionals, discussing life and work based on questions pulled from a specially curated deck of cards. In addition to the conversations, the audience will learn about the design and history of the consular residences as an embodiment of Nordic values through virtual tours of these unique spaces.
