Two important deadlines are approaching for the SID 2026 Annual Conference “Doing Design! Culture, Emancipation, Research”, which will be held at the Faculty of Design and Art of the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano on June 25 and 26, 2026.
By May 11, 2026, participants are invited to complete their early bird registration through the ConfTool platform to benefit from reduced rates. The same date marks the deadline for submitting camera-ready papers: all authors are required to upload their texts—in both Italian and English—via ConfTool by this deadline for publication in the proceedings. Meeting these deadlines is essential to ensure the proper execution of the conference’s organizational and editorial activities.
The provisional program of the event and the presentation template are available as attachments and on the website.
We look forward to welcoming you to Bozen-Bolzano!
