“Thanks again for the outstanding few days at the Design Indaba. Even though I only experienced part of it, I saw enough to understand what a truly spectacular event you put on every year. I felt very proud as a South African to see such a world-class event produced in SA.” Gidon Novick, joint CEO: Comair Limited

“Congratulations on an outstanding world-class Design Indaba 2008.” Andrew Jennings, CEO: Woolworths

“A total eye opener to the world of design.” Susan Daleen van der Westhysen, marketing support services

“Definitely the highlight on the SA design calendar!” Johan van Zyl, New Media Publishing

“This year I saw Design Indaba from another perspective and silenced in my mind some of the critics and cynics I have encountered. Your team has been outstanding and please pass on my compliments to them for making the whole event seem effortless! Design Indaba is no doubt in my mind the one and only design platform to be partnering with. Your commitment to the growth and positioning of the design industry as a real economic force both locally and globally is commendable.” Graeme Futter, marketing manager of brand communications: Sappi Fine Paper (Pty) Ltd

“I just wanted to say thank you, for an amazing conference, probably the best one I have attended in nearly ten years (and I attend a lot, as you know!). Design Indaba is I think the most outstanding conference in the world right now, and this one was even better than before. I came away inspired and fired up with new energy and ideas, and a very broad smile.”
