The Innovation Center at Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design will organize its first conference - Future Materials Conference - on September 15-16, 2022 in Budapest, Hungary. The event will provide a platform for designers, researchers, private sector representatives and students to present and discuss the latest trends in materials through a combination of lectures, discussion sessions and workshops.

The contemporary state and the defining role that materials play in reshaping our future will be explored. From experimental research and developments in the most innovative materials to current collaborations and innovations in the professional design industry.

The two-day event will examine topics including (but not limited to):

• Materials living around us
• Material as medium and culture
• Industry's race for new materials
• Dynamic and high-tech materials

The conference aims to bring together experts working internationally in the fields of biomaterials, augmented textiles and high-tech materials (and more) through presentations, physical exhibits, workshops and discussions. There is a strong belief in the powerful effect that knowledge cross-pollination of knowledge has in research and development, so the interest is in encouraging interdisciplinary collaboration to further push the boundaries of materials design culture.
