DDC & WDC 2026

The fourth episode of the WDCast explores what it takes to keep the spark alive even after the title year is over and to consolidate the structures that have been built up.

What remains after a year full of events, new encounters and new ideas? How can structures be consolidated in the long term? This is not just about what has been achieved, but above all about the conditions necessary for a long-term impact in Frankfurt RheinMain.

In this fourth and final episode of the WDCast, Carolina Romahn, CEO of WDC 2026, provides an introductory insight. Afterwards, Anna Whicher, Professor of Design & Policy at the PDR Research Institute at Cardiff Metropolitan University, and Felix Kosok, Head of Design Discourse at WDC 2026, will discuss with Georg-Christof Bertsch what will remain of the World Design Capital Frankfurt RheinMain 2026 beyond the title year and what is needed in key areas to ensure this.

This episode is in English.
