We have reserved the Wren Boardroom for approximately 100 people, so do invite colleagues and peers who might be interested in attending. We need to estimate the total number of attendees so please do RSVP. The reservation and attendance process is based on a first-come, first-served system with respect to the capacity of the room and priority of upto 90 seats for completed online reservations and 10 seats lag for last minute walk-in.
The list of presenters and final program are now complete. Please see below the program of presentations. If you are interested in presenting in a future event, do contact us. We need the presenter's name, organization, title of talk and a brief description. Guidelines for presenters can be found in the philosophy page.
To keep in touch with the community and receive updates for future events register to our mailing list. It is a low volume list. If you have ideas for improving the event series and/or information about other events relevant to the scope of the community send us a note and we will post on this site.

Friday, 24th July 2009
After the successful event at AKT, three fantastic and quite diverse presentations, a series of lively discussions and a request for participation beyond what we expected or experienced so far...
We are happy to announce the next Design Computing Community event will take place on Friday the 24th of July, 14:00 to 18:00 at the Royal Institute of British Architects (66 Portland Place, London, W1B 1AD).
We have reserved the Wren Boardroom for around 100 people, so do invite colleagues and peers who might be interested in attending the event. The artificial limit of a maximum of three representatives per practice does no longer apply! We do though need to estimate the total number of attendees so please do RSVP.
Due to the generous sponsorship of Altair Engineering we have lowered and simplified the registration and attendance fee to 10gbp for all participants.
We are in active pursuit of sponsors who are interested in supporting this community event series. We are happy to discuss with practices from within the industry and technology providers who are interested in contributing into this forum for contemporary methodologies of design. Please, pass the word!
