Launchpad Design Showcase
Launchpad Design Showcase
The Launchpad Design Showcase is our end-of-semester showcase featuring work from Georgia Tech's industrial design students. This event stands as a testament to their talent, creativity, and commitment to human-centered design. Over time, it has evolved into a notable assembly, uniting students, faculty, alumni, industry professionals, and design enthusiasts. We welcome anyone interested in exploring how design can enhance the human experience.
