We have evolved; adopted new ways of working and balanced the wellbeing of our people with the needs of our businesses. But we cannot stand still. Looking ahead, what’s on the horizon? How will our businesses need to adapt further to thrive in the design industry in 2023 and beyond?

Join us online for an hour at 3pm GMT on 2 March at our next DBA webinar as we explore the top emerging trends that are shaping the future of our businesses and how we can tackle them, head on. 

We’ll be joined by Emily Cohen and Hunter Vargas, Business Consultants to Creative Firms who in conversation with Deborah Dawton, Chief Executive at the DBA, will share their views on the themes and trends they’re seeing in the businesses they are working with. Together they’ll explore what we can learn from the collective successes in the industry and pitfalls to avoid as we look ahead.

Emily and Hunter will explore five emerging trends:

• business cultures: the nature of work is shifting, what bold steps do we need to take to keep up with it?
• paying ourselves and our employees what we’re worth: a fair, equitable and liveable wage must be a priority.
• pricing based on our worth and value: how can you make this a reality for your business?
• evolving partner relationships: if you are in a business partnership, what do you need to do now to prevent any issues in the future? 
• economic pressures: we don’t have a crystal ball, but what can you do to mitigate the potential risks ahead?
