This was an incredible year for us and for the Polish community of service designers! Not only we founded the SDN Poland Chapter and held the inaugural meeting. We held as well the Chapter’s co-creation workshop and a series of 5 meetups in 4 cities integrating the community of service design professionals and enthusiasts. On top of it, we received the 2018 SDN Chapter Award for the Best Public Relations. What a year…it set us the bar for the next year way up high. But before we present you our plans for the second year of SDN PL, we will shortly brief you on the most interesting insights from the 5 meetups in 4 Polish cities: Gdansk, Krakow, Poznan and Warsaw. They provided a platform of exchange on service design implementation in different sectors: consulting, banking, medical, insurance and automotive.

During the Service Design Global Conference in Dublin SDN Poland Chapter won the 2018 SDN Chapter Award for the Best Public Relations!

The #1 Autumn Meetup on September 26th was an occasion to launch a new series of meetings focused on case studies of service design implementation in different sectors and in different cities. We started with Warsaw.

After summer break, the SDN Poland Chapter is back on track to getting the job done. We scheduled an autumn series of meetups to further integrate Service Design professionals and enthusiast in Poland.

Within a month from the SDN Poland Chapter kick-off meeting and with the second meeting organized in Warsaw, the co-creation process of the SDN Poland Chapter was moved to next stage. We brainstormed, elaborated and selected the best ideas on the value proposition of the SDN Poland Chapter and on the team alignment. It gave us a lot of food for thought for the summer break and a solid base to proceed with expanding our chapter’s activity in the autumn.

It’s right about time for the Polish community of service designers to integrate and form intrinsically driven movement across the sectors and regions. With this idea in mind, on 19th of May 2018, the newly founded SDN Poland Chapter held its inauguration event.

The new SDN Poland Chapter started it's activities with a bang and created quite the buzz in a very short time when entering the scene. Now they are sharing how they managed to generate 10.000+ views with a few messages resulting in creating a regional service design community of over 200 members within a week.
