We need your help to continue our work of promoting design, brands and design businesses, including adjacent industries in our region. One of the ways we do this is by producing San Francisco Design Week, an essential week-long city-wide festival that showcases the unique intersection of ideas, design, business & entrepreneurism that makes the Bay Area the birthplace of the future.

For the past 18 years, we’ve created economic opportunities, showcased thought leadership and brands, and shined light on the products that change how the world works and lives with thousands of events and content.

We need your support as a 501c3 to accomplish our goals of covering local events and products launches through documentation, promotion, collaboration and press coverage. In 2023 we’ve elevated and promoted over 300 community events, brands, design teams and studios in the Bay Area.
