Great Sponsors this year

For the past two years, we’ve firmly believed in keep the Jam a free event for all.

However, as a voluntary event, this means that we do need support and help from our friends and sponsors. Here are our lovely sponsors this year who’re helping us make it real again this year: STBY, Engine Service Design, FutureGov and UX Cambridge

                                     

All of our sponsors are actively involved in the research, designing and/or development of the service industry in both public and private sectors. Many of them are big names in the industry, they are also generous and kind enough to support events to bring people together. Please do check them out and take a look at the their work! You may run into some of them at the jam so do look out

Be part of the jam as an organisation

Service Jam at London is an non-profit event organised by volunteers, who are individuals come together at their own time and cost for a cause – a passion to bring benefit of Service Design to wider communities in Design, user research, social innovation and digital innovation.

To make things happen, we need sponsors cover necessary cost of organising an event. Our sponsors and supporters help us to bring the best jam experience to London. Sponsoring Service Jam will give your brand a great visibility to the Service Design community at London, including some of the leading designers in practice.
