Brno Bold 2024 to bring top designers to Czech Republic for unique industry conference

On Nov. 18, Brno will once again transform into a creative epicenter as Brno Bold 2024, the country’s only conference dedicated to graphic designers, returns for its third edition. This year’s event, hosted at the Sono Music Club, will feature an expanded lineup with international speakers for the first time, promising a vibrant experience for over 500 creative professionals gathering under one roof.

Organized by Bloomfield Studio, Brno Bold has carved a niche as an exclusive platform for graphic designers to learn, network, and share insights within their industry. Unlike typical conferences, Brno Bold is built by designers for designers, creating a uniquely tailored experience that combines formal workshops with year-round gatherings.

The 2024 edition will emphasize hands-on learning and inspiring narratives, covering an impressive range of topics from brand development and interactive 3D technology to new, cutting-edge design approaches.

The conference, which opens at 9 a.m. and runs until 6 p.m., will bring together some of Europe’s most celebrated designers. Among the distinguished speakers are Björn Kusoffsky of Stockholm Design Lab, known for his work with IKEA Food; Amsterdam-based Rik Oostenbroek, a leading 3D design artist; and Radim Malinic, a London brand expert and celebrated author on creativity.

This high-profile lineup will be complemented by Czech and Slovak talent, including Barbora “Bessa” Kmecová, an acclaimed illustrator from Slovakia; Milan Šemelák, the mind behind the CreateValue methodology; Rudolf Letko, head designer at the Slovak agency GoBigname; Martin Vácha, founder of font studio Displaay; and Radek Micheller from Bloomfield Studio.

Brno Bold has gained traction as a key event for designers nationwide. It’s a rare opportunity for networking, skill-building, and connecting with some of the industry’s most influential voices.

“Brno Bold aims to elevate the standards of mainstream visual communication in Czechia—whether in print, online, or on the streets,” says Vít Rýznar, the conference organizer and creative director at Bloomfield Studio. “We connect everyone who wants to push their boundaries with top designers and entrepreneurs in the creative business.”
