Open education has been gaining visibility and momentum as part of open government initiatives — from open licensing of publicly-funded educational materials, to transparency in education funding, to leveraging open technologies and practices to increase the efficiency and efficacy of instruction. One important avenue for advancing these conversations is the Open Government Partnership (OGP), a multilateral initiative of more than 60 countries through which national governments make commitments to being more open, accountable and responsive to citizens. At least three countries involved in OGP have specifically adopted commitments to open education in their open government plans, the United States, Slovakia, and Spain, and numerous others are considering moving in this direction through an informal working group formed during the 2015 OGP Summit. Leading examples of OGP commitments in education include three international OER pilot programs run by the U.S. Department of State, and an initiative in the Slovak government to develop a procurement process for openly licensed educational resources. Alongside OGP, open education has also emerged in other international policy conversations, including the United Nations 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. This lightning talk will explore the connection between open education and open government, and opportunities for civil society members and government officials alike at the local, national and international levels.

Solving the Textbook Cost Crisis Through OERNicole Allen
The cost of college textbooks has grown to a point that virtually every campus is now seeking solutions. While many institutions have successfully reduced costs for students through stop-gap measures such as rental programs, lending libraries and licensing deals, the greatest potential for permanently solving the problem lies in Open Educational Resources (OER). Institutions of all kinds have begun to leverage OER to reduce costs for students, expand access to information, and enable faculty to better tailor materials to their courses. This talk will provide an overview of the OER movement to date, including important definitions, major projects, and what the most successful institutions are doing. It will also help frame the opportunity for regional collaboration and provide specific advice for members of the audience to take back to campus.

Ediția #4 Weekend Sessions își propune să ofere soluții sustenabile pentru instituțiile publice și muzeele partenere, ajutându-le să amplifice activitățile deja desfășurate prin intermediul unui Program de Internship și Mentorat de Marketing Cultural.
Echipe dedicate de studenți vor fi pregătiți pe tot parcursul anului și vor sprijini promovarea evenimentelor muzeelor în cadrul activităților de weekend, având oportunitatea de a fi premiați.
Dorim să transformăm Noaptea Muzeelor într-o experiență memorabilă, adăugând elemente de socializare, iar în perioada 21-23 iunie, de Ziua Mondială a Muzicii, organizăm un weekend dedicat artiștilor independenți de muzică clasică și jazz în diverse locuri din oraș, cu evenimente de prezentare și intrare liberă.
Weekend Sessions este un festival cultural în mijlocul naturii urbane. Am început în 2021 la Grădina Botanică a Universității din București unde am transformat un spațiu multivalent în prilej de experiențe memorabile cu sesiuni acustice de jazz, muzică clasică, pop-indie de la artiști independenți, picnic pe pajiște cu degustări de la antreprenori locali, proiecții de film în natură, momente de poezie. În 2022 extindem acest program la aproape 30 de evenimente în Grădina Botanică și Parcul Muzeului Casa Filipescu Cesianu pe Calea Victoriei, de asemenea avem invitații deschise în alte grădini botanice și parcuri din țară pentru extensii de viitor.
RoditorFoodMarket.ro - comunitatea antreprenorilor mici cu visuri mari, locul în care descoperi băuturi speciale, produse de băcănie, pachete cadou. O platformă de prezentare și vânzare dezvoltată în parteneriat cu UniCredit Bank.
Cadouri corporate de la antreprenori româniSilvia Floares
Am avut norocul să cunosc în ultimul an aproape 150 de mici antreprenori români în cele zece weekenduri de Mezanin Market.
I-am rugat pe câțiva să facă o selecție pentru cadouri corporate - și-au lăsat contactele, mi-ar plăcea să îi cunoașteți si voi.
Bineînțeles, vă invit la Mezanin Market @Palatul Universul, următoarele date sunt 2&3 noiembrie,14&15 decembrie, 21&22 decembrie și încă 10 întâlniri în 2020 :)
The Institute prezintă noile generații de creativi români, în fiecare an, la DIPLOMA.
Pornind de la premisa că lucrarea de diplomă este cel mai elaborat proiect al unui student din toată perioada facultății și că prezentarea acesteia se limitează de cele mai multe ori la publicul restrâns al cadrelor didactice, familiei și prietenilor, The Institute a lansat DIPLOMA - un eveniment dedicat, prin care încearcă să aducă lucrările de diplomă ale absolvenților de facultăți creative și vocaționale în atenția unui public cât mai larg.
Prin implicarea facultăților creative din București, ne propunem să generăm un dialog atât între studenții din diferite domenii, cât și între facultăți, care să se dezvolte și să se transforme în parteneriate, proiecte comune, colaborări. Mai multe informații pe: http://www.institute.ro/diploma.html

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.
Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
Dive into the innovative world of smart garages with our insightful presentation, "Exploring the Future of Smart Garages."

25. Romanian Design
Week Main exhibition
The exhibition presents some of the most important
recent Romanian design pieces, showing their
impact and relevant practices for the Romanian
creative industries in 2016.
26. Product design
This exhibition is an opportunity to talk about
local talents, about their efforts and their
attempts to build a career in the field.
We are talking about a difficult endeavor, as
local industry is vaguely aware of them, and real
public interest for this area is still modest.
We intend to capture each year the best of the
recent work from the product designers. We
look for the pragmatism and ability to create an
authentic item, with a commercial potential, with
available production means and in some cases
with the help of artisans and their craftsmanship
that may be transfered to a new generation.

27. Fashion
Romanian Design Week appeared when we
wondered “Romanian design, where to?”.
At the moment, many Romanian designers
are more appreciated in the official fashion
capitals than locally. So an event that talks
about them and their work, that would
bring them all together closer to the general
public, is an idea not only desirable but
necessary.

LOGO
28. Architecture
In this section you will find architecture, urbanism
and interior design projects that could make a
difference in the way we think, we practice and
we understand architecture here in Romania.
There are projects showcasing the incredible
force of architecture, its ability to change the way
we perceive the world, the space and the human
history. The exhibition is a statement of good
architecture, negotiating with legacy constraints and
with our own indifference.

29. Hybrid design
Romanian Design Week seeks and promotes
multidisciplinary projects that may represent examples
of best practices for collaborations between designers,
producers and distributors. Unconventional artistic
interventions, food and sound design, digital experiences
will be included in the selection of this multidisciplinary
section of Romanian Design Week.

30. Industrial design
Industrial design brings together objects of beauty
and purpose, with both aesthetic and technological
characteristics. The category will exhibit products
that improve our way of living, enrich our culture and
contribute to our economy – from ergonomic furniture
to smart watches, from domestic appliances to smart
materials.

31. Graphic design
Our graphic design area is the playground for
illustrators, typographers, graphic designers and
art-directors. Featuring a whole host of different
techniques and working processes, such as paper
craft, animation and typography, the exhibition
is full of vibrant and inspiring work by freelance
illustrators, creative agencies, collectives,
publications and print studios from across Romania,
giving graphic design the recognition it deserves on
the creative industries agenda.
