Attending HS Design Operations was an incredibly valuable experience. It was refreshing to be surrounded by such a talented group of peers and leaders. The discussions were high-energy, intellectually stimulating and well-aligned with the current challenges we’re facing in the field. I’m walking away not only with new perspectives but also with some great connections. 

The 2026 HS Design Operations event was a very informative, well-paced conference. I appreciated not having too many sessions crammed into the day, and spending time in between sessions discussing topics with new connections.

HS Design Operations events provide me with the opportunity to connect with peers, and expand my network. In a more face to face environment, to share and collaborate. As far as conferences go, it feels they have embodied a human centered ideology that can be felt by attendees. 

I've always believed the most exciting work happens where disciplines overlap. HS Creative Tech brought together designers, technologists, strategists, artists, and entrepreneurs who all share that mindset. It wasn't about technology for technology's sake—it was about how technology can elevate creativity, storytelling, and human experience. I left energized, inspired, and with several meaningful new relationships.
