01 / Event recap · Rome, 3 December 2025

Si può fare! (It could work!)

Lo Stato del Design 2025 brought together designers, practitioners and innovators working to transform public services. The event provided a forum for sharing experiences, methods and ideas to advance human-centred design.

It set out to champion the expertise already present within public sector organisations, embed a design culture across the public sector and build a community of practice that collaborates and drives innovation.

Bringing together people from government, industry, research and education, the event helped build connections and share good practice to make public services simpler, more accessible and more human.
