NETWORK MEMBERSHIP

In addition to our offerings in design education and professional services, CIID hosts a unique global community of design, technology and business experts. Our network of over 500 CIID alumni, faculty, and partners includes senior design practitioners at many of the world’s leading technology companies and social impact organisations, as well as respected thought leaders and promising recent graduates.
We invite corporations and foundations that share CIID’s vision and values to join this remarkable community.
Membership in the network brings a variety of benefits that showcase the unique range of talent in the CIID community. As members, your team will receive:
The most valuable benefit of all, though, is the connections CIID Members make with like-minded experts, who are passionate about design and its potential to transition us to a more regenerative future.
For corporations, membership in the Network can be a rich and reliable source of new talent, new ideas, and new partnerships—with CIID alumni and other Members. And for foundations, the Network can also reveal unique new investment opportunities and initiatives that align with their own values.
Membership fees are €20,000 per team, per year. Please contact memberships@ciid.dk for further details, and to inquire about joining.
