Goa (India) - From 6-8 September, India's designers will gather at Kyoorius Designyatra. Kyoorius Designyatra is an annual design event organised by Kyoorius Exchange, a platform initiated in the Visual Communications space by Transasia Fine Papers and guided by top designers and creative heads.

Theme: "Design Empowers Businesses"

The theme for Kyoorius Designyatra 2007 is "Design Empowers Businesses." Thomas J. Watson, Jr., the CEO who was responsible for introducing electronic computers into IBM's business direction and one of TIME Magazine's 100 most influential people of the 20 century, once famously declared, "Good design is good business." The theme for Kyoorius Designyatra 2007 is inspired by Watson's statement.

Kyoorius Designyatra 2007 aims to connect design business to foster strategic partnerships for mutual growth. Kyoorius Designyatra 2007 invites participants to look beyond the boundaries of design and explore the future of design as a business and as a tool to empower businesses. As global design business is moving towards convergence of multidisciplinary solutions, the timing is becoming increasingly critical to reevaluate and reassess, both from the design firm's point of view or from the businesses'. Kyoorius Designyatra 2007 encourages business owners and design buyers to reappraise the values of design to provide a competitive edge to their business.

Through Kyoorius Verdict, Designyatra encourages looking at design practice, not just from delivering creative and visually pleasing solutions, but also to measure the effectiveness of design solutions in the marketplace. Panel discussions will focus on growing business by design and will have eminent heads of top corporate as panelist.
