Introducing SEGD Professional Practice Groups
This May, SEGD is thrilled to announce a groundbreaking initiative: the SEGD Professional Practice Groups. Designed to serve as pivotal platforms for knowledge exchange and innovation, these networks mark a significant step forward in harnessing the collective expertise of our members.
Professional Practice Groups: Empowering Collaboration
SEGD Professional Practice Groups are more than just groups; they are vibrant forums for like-minded professionals to delve into specific areas of expertise, share insights, and foster personal and professional growth. These groups offer unlimited members, providing a welcoming, ongoing, and open-ended environment for all SEGD members.
Aligning with Strategic Goals
The activities and discussions within the SEGD Professional Practice Groups are intentionally aligned with SEGD’s overarching strategic goals. These groups play a critical role in shaping the future of experiential graphic design by focusing on:
- Wayfinding and Experiential Graphics: Advancing knowledge and innovative practices in creating graphic environments and navigational experiences.
- Museum Exhibition and Experience Design: Exploring new frontiers in museum exhibition design curation and experiences, enhancing visitor engagement.
- Digital and Interactive Media: Pushing the boundaries in digital media applications within physical spaces to create dynamic and interactive environments.

By concentrating on these key areas, the Professional Practice Groups aim to foster development and innovation across the spectrum of experiential graphic design.
A Variety of Topics and Platforms for Engagement
Members will engage in a variety of topics including contract terms, design processes, best practices, professional development, and more. These discussions will take place across various platforms such as monthly Zoom meetings, dedicated channels on GlueUp, and social gatherings at SEGD events, ensuring vibrant and continuous interaction.
Envisioning the Impact
The expected outcomes of the SEGD Professional Practice Groups are ambitious and multifaceted. Members can look forward to contributing to thought leadership through articles and white papers, engaging in advocacy efforts, and enriching the content of SEGD Voices and Events. Moreover, these networks will collaborate with existing SEGD committees to amplify their impact, assess their effectiveness, and ultimately enhance the value of SEGD membership.
