Digital Health Days was kicked off at Stockholmsmässan in the presence of HRH Prince Daniel. Over 400 delegates and 50 journalists had registered for the conference, a clear sign of how much people are interested in developing the interface between IT on the one hand, and healthcare and life sciences research on the other.
Formex, the largest meeting place for Nordic interior design, came to a successful conclusion last weekend.The fair attracted a total of 20,703 visitors from 9,413 companies.11% of these companies came from countries other than Sweden, which is a larger percentage than ever before.
The winner of the 2013 Nova Designer Award is Mattias Stenberg from Studio Vision.The Jury’s motivation for picking him was for “a style brimming with confidence”.The Nova Design Award has been instituted by Formex, one of Stockholmsmässan’s flagship events and the leading trade fair for Nordic interior design.
In the Entrance Hall at Formex, household furnishings chain Habitat has put together a lounge created by interior designer and stylist Per Wennberg. The lounge is a place for visitors to take timeout away from all the impressions. It’s a place to reflect and chat.
Many of today's established designers have had their breakthrough after exhibiting at Young Designers, Formex's platform for young, up-and-coming designers. In addition to Young Designers, Formex also has Next Step, which is for exhibitors that have come a little further along in their establishment phase. Young Designers is being organized for the eleventh time and Next Step for the seventh time.
The nominations are complete for Formex's Nova Design Award, which will be awarded for the third year in a row on August 15th. The award will go to a young designer working in the Nordic Region and is selected by an expert jury.
Eclecticism, Formalism, Maximalism and Materialism, at Trend Zone, Formex's section for trend inspiration, four of the season's most important trends are presented in an exhibition that is put together by the Swedish Fashion Council (Svenska Moderådet).
It's time to apply to Greenhouse at Stockholm Furniture & Light Fair 2014. Greenhouse is the section where up-and-coming designers and design schools show off their prototypes to future partners, producers and customers. Several of the leading designers and design groups of our time have had their breakthrough thanks to their participation in Greenhouse.
The Formex interior design and gifts fair on 15-18 August is a chance for visitors to experience a blend of food, meetings and inspiration in the buffet zone and the exhibition Eat Meet Enjoy, inspired by this fall’s trend theme Eclectic Touch.
It’s time again: Stockholmsmässan’s main entrance will be turning back into a busy building site for the next few months. This is the final phase of building work and on 14 August – just one day before the first exhibition of the fall opens – the gleaming new entrance area will be finished.
The program for Digital Health Days, Sweden's new conference about current and future digital health solutions, is taking shape. The most recent addition to the list of speakers features two real giants in the field, Don Jones and Steven Burrill, both with solid experience in the border area between life sciences, health and IT.
Mix and match: matte and shiny, vivid and neutral, conventional and original. The trend theme at the Formex interiors and design fair on 15-18 August 2013 is Eclectic Touch – affirmative and indulgent, with an intuitive feel.
