How worldwide businesses benefit from BDCN Network
BDCN is a non-profit, noncommercial, cultural platform displaying the very best designs from different regions, however this amazing display of art worldwide creates an externality for the designers whose works are listed and showcased as it further allows discoverability. BDCN is great for all managers who aim for highest harmony and creative synergy when finding designers, artists and architects to commission new works. BDCN is also great for national agencies or local governments who are required by local laws to hire or work with native designers, artists and architects, especially for government projects and tenders. For everyone else, BDCN will provide you with a unique opportunity to see an extensive list of award-winning projects in your region, allowing you to choose local award-winning designers, artists, architects and creative agencies to work with that share your vision and taste; using BDCN, you can visually inspect the very best designs in your locality and find designers, artists, architects and creative agencies that have already created past products, projects and works that are in line with your current goals, inspirations and ideals. For large enterprises, the BDCN network also allows you to help localize your international products to different markets; for example, if you wish to launch your existing product in a new country or region, why not work with a top-ranking creative agency from that region to design your new packaging, that has already designed amazing packaging designs for other enterprises, that has a good knowledge and control over local traditions and tastes. Large enterprises may also benefit from BDCN when looking for new design, art and architecture talent to hire; it may make sense to hire local designers, artists and architects based on their works, rather than their curriculum vitae and thus the BDCN platform may also potentially function as a great marketplace for creative jobs.
