uXperience Design Jam - Sponsored by Sun Life

This is a full-day design jam on January 20th, 2024, open to all post-secondary students held at the Stratford School.

The focus of the day: Though there are many publicly accessible mental health supports, 6 in 10 Canadians with a mood, anxiety, or substance use disorder go untreated. How can we use design to help reduce the barriers to accessing mental health care and better connect at-risk Canadians with the support they need?

Students will be solving this problem in teams of up to 6. Participants can either select their team in advance or will be assigned one.

Sponsored by: Sun Life and the Stratford School

BLEND: Business + Design Conference

BLEND: What to expect

At Blend, you'll connect with like-minded professionals, hear stories of designers and leaders facing the future and redefining realities, and participate in workshops that will help you in your industry.

This year features keynotes and workshops from industry leaders and the BLEND after-party. And the best part? You'll be surrounded by people who are just as passionate about breaking boundaries as you are. We're talking about entrepreneurs, creatives, and boundary-pushing thinkers who will inspire you to think bigger and bolder than ever before.

Over the day, you'll be inspired as we hear inspiring stories of people in our community of designers breaking boundaries and overcoming obstacles to redefine our world.

We'd love for you to be part of the conversation. We promise it'll be worth the investment.
