BODW City Programme 2022

Introduction

BODW City Programme (CityProg) is a citywide creative business and design and creative clusters activation programme initiated in 2018 by Hong Kong Design Centre (HKDC). It aims to promote the development of local design and creative clusters, and foster exchange and collaborations among local business, different sectors and overseas creative units to create shared values and make the city a better place. Each year, CityProg brings together over 100 creative partners to spark more than 100 design-driven happenings around the city through its three distinct platforms: ‘Anchor Site Festivals’, ‘Design EduVation’ programmes, and ‘Satellite Events & Offers’, fostering creativity for our city and economy and nurturing a thriving creative ecosystem in Hong Kong.

A community extension programme of HKDC’s annual flagship event Business of Design Week (BODW), CityProg spans throughout the year, with major happenings in November and December near BODW annually, peaking from 26 November to 4 December for the 2022 edition. To celebrate HKDC’s 20th anniversary, the 2022 edition of CityProg has taken the theme ‘20s: Reflect‧Refresh‧Reset’, with a focus on ‘Design for Sustainable Community’. It joined forces with different sector partners and the wider public to make a positive impact to the community with good design, adhering to a ‘business for good’ concept.

Create Hong Kong of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is the Lead Sponsor of BODW and CityProg.
