Thank you all for participating!
I want lie or flatter you with irrelevant words, i’m just a single guy, I have no money (i have kids), i like learning, i love the web. I started learning code only a few years ago, but the more things I learn the more I can pass on. Teach me and help me educate the children so they have a chance at a brighter future.
How great is this…. I already booked the flight now let’s win this ticket…
Because i love travelling and i Have never Been on Londyn. Second thing because ta these data im doing redesign of my sama-sama web site for RWD, and last but not least because conferences in Poland are mediocre:/
I would love to go to #FOWD. I would like to ask the professional WD about many things. This will be my first time also if i go….

FOWD would be amazing to expose myself to some very talented people. I am trying to expand my network and knowledge and I can’t think of a better conference which to go for this.

I had the privilege to attend at the 2012 edition as student because some topics were of interest for my graduation research. I would love to return again for the great speakers, vibe and people 🙂 The Tweet
I attended 2012’s FOWD and I do believe it is the best WD event in Europe. Period! I can’t wait to return back there and keep on learning from all the bright minds there.
There goes my tweet: https://twitter.com/pablodeeleman/status/428468243259330560
I live, dream and obsess about beautiful web design. An obsession which I gladly give into every day when I go to work. I love the web, I love the industry and I would love to be able to attend one the best conferences we have.
I wouldn’t normally have the funds to be able to afford such a fantastic conference, so to be able to attend this fantastic conference would be a dream come true.
Quirky side note: I also come from the same city as the wonderful organisers of this conference (beautiful Bath).

Patty cake, patty cake,

With doses of inspiration,

stick with it and reintegrate.

I love to learn new things coming in Web, In this conference i will get a chance to interact with some good developers
Hi!
I’ve been interested in the web industry for as long as I could remember. I’ve started freelancing 2 years ago and it’s been a joy so far. I’ve always kept up to date with the new practices in webdesign. (Thanks to sites like Codrops, which always keep pushing the possibilities in HTML5, CSS3 & JS development. ) The Future of Web Design 2014 conference would be a really good place to enhance my network as well to gain more knowledge!
Anyway, I haven’t been able to attend any foreign conferences yet. It would be lovely if you guys could help me get a ticket. I am from Belgium, so it’s fairly close by. Would love to meet you guys and catch up!

It’d be an amazing opportunity to travel to London for The Future of Web Design conference. I’m always looking for ways to expand my understanding of the industry and keep up on the latest practices/trends. Learning from this panel and interacting with designers and developers from all over the world would truly be an honor.

What a great lineup! Would absolutely love to go to this conference and listen to those awesome people!
Can’t wait to learn more!
My tweet
We would love to go to the Future of Web Design conference because we simply love design! We are passionate about it and anxious to learn about the upcoming design age. We also secretly would love to see bad design wiped off the surface of the Earth! 🙂
This would be so nice to me and my colleagues. I really appreciate these conferences are held.
With love from Holland
I quit my job last week. Why?
For a couple of years I’ve worked with embedded C. But my heart has always been lost to front-end. I am facing an uncertain future, yet I feel like it was the right thing to do. The opportunity to attend a cutting edge conference would be incredible. On top of that the web community seems like a bunch of really fun and quirky chump and chumpettes, I’d fit right in!
Sharing is caring
London is a beautiful city 🙂

Want to be part of this spectacular event 🙂
I think conference like this is good chance to meet with people who think with you one wave. Will be nice to discuss last & future trends.
I visited many web conference around the world, but never have a chance to visit FOWD. Hope this time I will get this experience.

After studying graphic design in Vancouver, Canada, I decided to take the leap of a lifetime and move to London to be in the centre of art and design. The Future of Web Design 2014 is exactly the type of event I moved all the way across the world for. As a starter web designer, I promise you furious note taking, brain running 100 miles/hour and not even blinking so I can take in everything. Tweet here: https://twitter.com/KaitlinZhang/status/428839002519511040
FOWD London 2007 was one of the best conferences I’ve ever been to. Elliot Jay Stocks, Jon Hicks, Andy Clarke … I was totally flashed by the whole experience, it was very well organized and super welcoming. But for a foreign freelancer a trip like this usually is fairly expensive, so I was never able to attend again. Winning the ticket would make it an easy decision 😀 (Tweet)
Would love to attend the FOWD!
Simple really – be part of this event and get some very useful new skills/information – meet great people and visit London for the first time.
As a freelancer, I’d love to attend “FUTURE OF WEB DESIGN 2014” – It would be a great opportunity to network with other designers and to develop my practice… Bring it on!
I live web! and I always wanted to assist to a conference in Europe! Please make it happen!!!! Love Codrops!!! FOWD here I come 😉
I want so much to attend to FOWD. The world of web design needs more professionals learning about the future of this area so they can begin piching to their partners and clients – and the FOWD is the place to do it!

Since I work for one of the most downloaded app, I’d really love to attend the FOWD 2014 here in London!
Since making the transition from print to digital I have never looked back – finding out out about his conference fuelled my creativity even more. Firstly because of Jason Pamental, and secondly – the future is digital.

Having graduated from Leeds University doing New Media back in 2010 and having gained “enough” experience in the industry, me and my mate from the same course have decided and are currently in the process of starting out our own studio. We have no capital investment and we will be operating primarily using my spare bedroom as a work studio. The only investment we have are the tools that we personally own and currently use, the knowledge and experienced we’ve gained, time that we can dedicate and faith in ourselves that we will somehow make this attempt in making our dream come true work. Being able to attend FOWD will let us gain an insight into the current world of web design outside of what we know and be able to see its projected future. This in turn will hopefully let us gain a Level-Up to help us make our dream a reality.
Forgot about this. Sorry.. Here’s the tweet link by the way. https://twitter.com/chriscuevas_, and i’ve hashed tagged codrops too.

I’ve never participated in a FOWD and I’d like because I’m very interested in the trends that develop in the world of graphic design and web design and to know so many cool people who are passionate about web design.
I would like Slovenia to feel the power of proffesional web design guidelines from FOWD. I’ll do my best.
For the fun! 🙂

Someone awesome here would LOVE to join the most awesome conference, and make the future of web design to be more awesome in 2014.
Really appreciate to have the opportunity to go!!!
ME! ME! ME!
I’m extremely interested to learn more about web design and how to improve my skills. Currently a college student and this event would give me a competitve edge over some of my colleagues 😛
I would love to attend the conference. I’ve been designing / developing for well over ten years. The latest trends in web development and rich media have been astounding. I hope the conference would shed light on future trends regarding website development, mobile technology and digital media for entertainment and communication globally.
Being a foreign citizen (from Russia) in France for a year, I can definitely say that I probably won’t get the chance to go to one of those things ever again. I’ve been doing web design for three years (eight months officially as a freelancer), completely self-taught, and currently, I’m actually the only web designer I know! So, multiple reasons: finally network and get to know people from the industry, get their feedback (and get bashed), as well as keep up with current trends, which is probably one of the hardest things in any profession.
