The City of Dublin and the Institute of Art, Design & Technology (IADT) will act as co-hosts for Interaction 12, the annual conference of the Interaction Design Association (IxDA) which will take place for the first time in Europe in 2012.
The other submissions came from Berlin, Delft, Helsinki and Paris, from which Berlin, Dublin and Helsinki were shortlisted.
“After a review of the submissions the Board unanimously endorsed this choice, based on the strength of Dublin’s coordinated, city-wide support for the conference, the strength of the local interaction design community, and the quality of the conference facilities on offer.”
