MaD 2016

Comprising art, theatre, architecture, design, media, and multifaceted programmes, the MaD forum is a holistic creative experience for 1,300 participants from over 100 Asian cities.

Last year, they themed the annual forum 'Village Reimagined' and asked participants to reimagine different realities for the places they call home. This year, 'Village Reinvented' takes such imagination as the point of departure, and ventures to create practical change through reinventions.
