Belfast Design Week is delighted to be partnering with Belfast School of Art Shop, Story Box and Maven this year for Belfast Design Week to give 8 emerging makers and designers the opportunity to meet with and get feedback from independent design and retail professionals.

The session aims to offer:
- Rapid, diverse feedback on work

Participants should bring a small product, prototype, or visual documentation of their work.
