Mark Your Calendar March 1-3 For The Design Influencers Conference in San Francisco

The 2020 Interior Design Influencers Conference 
is just one month away
at the Grand Hyatt hotel 
in San Francisco from March 1-3
The industry's annual conference brings together experts from in and outside the world of interior design with design brands and attendees to collaborate, brainstorm and hear words of wisdom. This year's conference is again expecting a banner year in attendance, but act fast as the deadline for registration is fast approaching on February, 12.  You can register here and book your hotel here! 

The conference has come a long way from the first event in 2011 when I was an attendee in Los Angeles.  I met some talented and collaborative design-industry folks then, and we are still friends today. I now sit on the advisory board of the conference weighing in on how to bring the best in the industry together for this annual event.  

It's exciting to note the 2020 conference will kick off with a  fantastic trio of celebrity keynote speakers- Nate Berkus, Alexa Hampton, and Miranda Kerr.  To follow is an impressive line-up of speakers and events. Some of the Industry Influencers participating, include; Erica Chan Coffman, Caitlin Flemming, Young Huh, Jonathan Rachman, Kim Salmela and Michel Smith Boyd. The conference also brings in experts from outside the design industry to share their expertise, so read the full List of Speakers. The program features the main Influencer Track, a Brand Track co-sponsored by High Point Market Authority. There will be an array of sessions for both influencers and brands to participate in, and of course, fun after-parties to boot. Check out the Event Overview to effectively plan your trip.
