Queretaro Design Week 2016 will take place from Wednesday September 7 – 11.
Querétaro could become part of the select group of UNESCO’s “Creative Cities Network”, a branch created in 2004 to promote cooperation between cities that have identified creativity as a strategic factor for sustainable urban development.
The 116 cities which currently make up this network work together towards a common objective: placing creativity and cultural industries at the heart of their development plans at a local level and cooperating actively at an international level.
The goal of this initiative is to achieve cooperation between public and private sectors for a sustainable industrial and urban development, involving other factors such as creativity and culture, in order to generate economic, political, social and ecological solutions for the city.
The Creative Cities Network is currently formed by 116 Members from 54 countries covering seven creative fields: Crafts & Folk Art, Design, Film, Gastronomy, Literature, Music and Media Arts. (Image: codiceinformativo.com)

A series of lectures, workshops and networking sessions, accompanied by exhibitions, interventions and festivites that Queretaro Design Week has prepared for this edition and will be proud to present during this one of a kind celebration.
Besides, on Friday, September 9 and Sunday, 10 at the Domun Hotel, the second Meeting of Business Innovation will take place, an event that brings creative entrepreneurs together in order to establish B2B (business to business) and B2C (business to customer) links.
