How Does the BD Club Work?
Budding Designers is a unique consultancy firm specialising in helping creative people get their design businesses off the ground. We work actively with our Members, helping them bring their ideas to market. We are the first port of call for our Members when they need advice, a helping hand, or just a chat about their upcoming projects. We also have a wide range of products and services at reduced prices.
Previous young designers, including myself, found a lonely and difficult road when building and running their own design company. Budding Designers supports its Members in a way that no other company can, providing free networking opportunities with other new or experienced designers, so that the road before you becomes an exciting journey.
BUDDING DESIGNERS is The only design club! an opportunity to become part of a design community! The Budding designers website is a social networking hub designed to show case creative talent through an online portfolio. Upload projects and feature your work to the design world on an easy to use dedicated website.
Whether you have ambitions for a large company, freelance design work, or whether you just want to talk about your future career as a designer, we look forward to hearing from you.
"Budding Designers was created for designers by designers, and is the ideal platform to showcase your work to the people who really matter within your chosen industry" Fabienne Lecocq, Director JVEP
