The 42 finalists of the PerúDesignNet ideas competition travelled to Peru to form part of the PerúDesignNet Week, which took place from the 2nd to the 7th of November. There, they showcased and carried out their ideas, developing them with the help of the participating companies and a group of international facilitators: Britons, North Americans, French, Spaniards and Peruvians.

An initiative that provided solutions to real needs via an ideas competition for creatives and designers from all over the world.
