SPONSORS

The response_ability conference is a project of AIGA,
sponsored by Adobe Systems.

At Adobe Systems, we believe in the communicative power of design. Over the past decade Adobe has been an active participant in the design community, listening closely to designers' needs and building integrated solutions that are used daily. It's what designers accomplish with those tools that continually astounds and inspires us. We value the potential of design to influence, to educate, to motivate, to engage—and even to act as an agent for social change. These are some of the reasons why Adobe is the official AIGA Technology Sponsor. At both national and regional levels, Adobe is working with the AIGA to create innovative programs that give members a voice, nurture young designers, and actively engage the creative community in dialogues about the important issues in the field of design and technology.
