Designing for uncertainty

Date: April 7
Time: 17.00-19.00
Location: BRUS, Guldbergsgade 29F, 2200 København

“The world is shifting at an unprecedented pace. Economic instability, political disruptions, and cultural reconfigurations are redefining how we live, work, and build. Systems once regarded as stable are being fundamentally challenged—urging us to rethink resilience, adaptability, and the role of design in shaping the future.”

Join LifeMadeBetter Talks: 
Designing for Uncertainty – Lessons from Today to Build the Future of Tomorrow 

Curated by students from the Royal Danish Academy and Copenhagen Business School , this edition of LifeMadeBetter Talks creates a space where emerging voices meet established thinkers.

• Prof. Mikkel Flyverbom – Professor at Copenhagen Business School , specializing in governance, data, and economic power
