Can’t baby sit for you, but we can still help

Parental Leave

Parental leave is an amazing time to get to know and love a brand new member of your growing family – but it can come at a financial and professional cost.

Attending conferences during this time is a great way to network and connect with peers face-to-face, but ticket prices and finding/paying for childcare can be daunting.

At DesignX, we’ve put together our first self-funded scholarship program for those on parental leave to have access to the Design Leadership Summit at a 75% discount.

Why would you like to attend DLS 2019?*
Tell us about yourself, your leadership experience so far, and what you'd like to get from the experience.
What best describes your current parental leave situation?
- A contractor or freelancer with no top-up from an employer/client
- You’re employed, full-time, at a company that tops up significantly less time than the amount you're taking off (e.g. 6-week top-up on a 12-month leave)
- You’re an individual re-entering the workforce after a significant amount of time off to take care of your newborn (i.e. opted out of work to be at home for a few years)

The application deadline is October 21st at 11:59PM EST. Those selected will be given a discount code for one (1) ticket to the summit excluding the workshops. Scholarship recipients will be notified via email.

If your company is interested in sponsoring Parental Leave tickets for DLS 2019, please reach out at hello@designx.community.
