International Forum for Design

IFG Ulm GmbH founded in 1987, this nonprofit, wholly owned subsidiary of the HfG Ulm Foundation set out to place the designer’s social responsibility at the center of attention and to promote it through targeted projects.

This goal was achieved over a period of 15 years through the organization of an annual symposium (1988–2003), which featured funded projects in practice, research, teaching, and scholarship in the field of design.
