ABOUT US
Design WAH! celebrates the bold imagination of Singapore’s emerging designers by spotlighting creative design ideas that have the potential to grow into intellectual property (IP), whether through innovative design services, product concepts or rich world-building narratives to real-world opportunities.
WHY IPs MATTER
Do you know that original design IPs are powerful cultural and economic assets?
In Singapore, IP-rich industries contribute over 33% of the economy and provide one in five jobs. But while the value is clear, many young creatives still don’t know how to protect or commercialise their ideas.
WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER
For entrepreneurs, brands, and industry partners
Discover original ideas brands can license, co-develop, or turn into products.
Connect with next gen designers, illustrators, and schools ready to collaborate.
Go behind the scenes to see how designers and creators shape ideas.
For designers and creative enthusiasts
Learn from business leaders, industry insiders, educators, and IP designers through case studies and expert sessions.
Get inspired at Design WAH! Programme Zone.
Discover how ideas become collectibles and imagination builds immersive worlds. Learn how application, preparation, innovation, and identity shape the future of design.
