> Dear All,
>
> Though this event is not directly related to CC, designers on the
> mailing list who are interested in "CrowdSourcing", please take notice
> of the following event:
>
> Hong Kong International Design and Innovation Forum brings you Mr.
> Kohei Nishiyama of cuusoo.com Japan, and Douglas Young of GOD.com.hk.
>
> Cuusoo.com allows users to submit their "wishes", and work with
> designers to get their wishes made into real life products! Both MUJI
> and LEGO are working with cuusoo.com to reach out to Japan's designers
> and regular consumers communities.
>
> G.O.D. is one of the most famous home grown brands of Hong Kong. Their
> designs are inspired by Hong Kong's unique cultural identity, they're
> often iconic but with a twist, so the people of Hong Kong can
> immediately identify with, while putting a smile on their faces.
>
> So come listen to these visionaries who have been hard at work pushing
> the design and innovation envelope for the past 10 ~ 20 years! You
> will be able to hear their experiences, and there will be time for you
> to tell them your personal views and struggles in the 2nd half of this
> forum event. Let us hear your problems and try to work together to
> come up with solutions for a better future!
>
> The main purpose of this event is to inspire the youngsters of Hong
> Kong, broaden their views and help them look at the big picture.
