It is a great joy for me to welcome all the participants on behalf of all members of the 7th International Congress of the International Association of Societies of Design Research (IASDR). I am particularly pleased because, for the first time, the conference will be held in the continent of America. I would like to express my sincere appreciation of and congratulations to the College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning (DAAP) at the University of Cincinnati for their historical dedication to the development of design research.
