FairPhone Design Expo - Design expo: a phone that lasts Waag Society

FairPhone already has its first 10,000 subscribers and it will not be long before the first model of the mobile phone will be available on the market. Reasons enough for a party. And everyone who is interested in gadgets, design, conscious living and honest consuming is invited!

Prior to this evening Waag Society and FairPhone organize a Design Bootcamp. Fifteen professional designers will be working on several questions for three days in a row: What does the phone of the future look like? And what design is needed to built a mobile phone that can be fully recycled?

Designers from companies like Vodafone (DL), Dawn (NL) and Forum of the Future (UK) will join the bootcamp. The results can be seen during the Release Party in a pop-up exhibit.
