Michael D. Higgins, President of Ireland, is Patron of Irish Design 2015 and the initiative has been included in the Irish Government’s Action Plan for Jobs.
ID2015 is being convened by the Design & Crafts Council of Ireland, in collaboration with partner organisations on behalf of the Department of Jobs, Enterprise & Innovation, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and Enterprise Ireland.
Delivering the ID2015 programme would not be possible without the enthusiastic involvement and generous support of the design community, partners and sponsors, for which the ID2015 team is extremely grateful. ID2015 actively seeks partnership opportunities with suitable organisations.
