Insights from chapter representatives

On the following pages we will present you with some of the success stories our award winning chapters have experienced throughout 2018, as well as best case practices from all around the globe. Chapter representatives have answered questions posed by the SDN Headquarters team about their activities, to provide personal insights and practical tips. We hope this will offer both inspiration and guidance for your own service design activities in 2019!
