30/30 Event Series

Build relationships with the next generation of design professionals

INTERIOR DESIGN’s 30/30 program spotlights top emerging design talent nominated by their firms. These high-energy events forge lasting connections, offering brand leaders a unique opportunity to engage with the next generation and showcase products through tabletop presentations.

When your brand sponsors a 30/30 event, two of your team members are invited to join the experience.

In 2026, the program expands with events in 19 cities, plus three marquee 30/30 Reunion gatherings at major trade shows and an annual conference in Chicago.
