As an important town and transportation hub in central China, Wuhan is not only one of the important engines of China's economic development; After Shenzhen, Shanghai and Beijing, it has become the fourth city in China to be awarded the title of "City of Design" by UNESCO.

At present, Wuhan has gathered tens of thousands of enterprises, and the market is full of vitality and huge scale. Although the service design field in Wuhan started late compared with other design branches, thanks to the promotion of the 'City of Design' and the urgent need of enterprises to improve user experience and service quality, Wuhan is actively holding a series of service design activities, such as: "Wuhan Biennale", "Design Day", etc., the
professional atmosphere in the field of design is extremely strong, and Wuhan is rapidly entering a stage of rapid development for professional service design institutions.

In addition, with its huge number of more than 1.2 million college students, Wuhan ranks first in the world, showing an incomparable advantage in science and education resources. As a comprehensive university specializing in science and engineering, Wuhan University of Technology's design discipline integrates the unique advantages of science and engineering, which not only represents the top level of Wuhan design, but also has a certain influence in the field of Chinese design.

Chapter Vision:

Since its establishment, LeNSLab-WUT has actively communicated and interacted with the government, industry, and universities, and initiated the TDEx Wuhan Speech Conference and the GLOBALSERVICEJAM Wuhan Station Workshop; Organize a series of activities such as DIDID Conference and DESIGNPARTY international joint course.

We hope that through the establishment of the Wuhan SDN Branch, we can better give full play to the advantages of Wuhan as a "City of Design", build a service design exchange platform, gather the strength of design institutions, enterprises, designers and universities, and promote service innovation and the application of design methods. By deepening the service design culture, stimulating the innovative thinking of designers, scholars and practitioners in Wuhan, integrating innovative elements from Wuhan and Central China into
the practice of service design, and enhancing the influence of SDN in China.
