Earlier this month at DesignThinkers Vancouver, we saw designers come together to learn and have conversations about the crucial topics affecting society and industry alike. Below we share slides from six presentations catapulting us to design a better future.

In this talk, Tammy demystifies what inclusion looks like in marketing.
