let's talk resilience | Less Noise, More Signal: Resilience as Subtraction

In this session, design entrepreneur and Founder of WDO Member REFRAME Design Roberto Inderbitzin reflects on resilience as judgment rather than endurance, acting instead of reacting, choosing signal over noise, and removing what doesn't serve the work. Drawing on a pandemic pivot, he makes the case that real resilience is the discipline of speed and subtraction. Speakers: Roberto Inderbitzin Hosted by World Design Organization in celebration of World Industrial Design Day 2026, let's talk resilience brings together designers, educators, innovators and thought leaders to explore how design is driving resilience across the globe. Through a series of thought-provoking conversations and reflections, this virtual event highlighted how designers are building resilience across a range of systems and scales, from climate action and AI to design education and national policy.
