  • APD Outstanding Contribution Awards
At APD TAIPEI 2017, TPDA former chairman Owen brought forth a suggestion to show our appreciation and gratitude to the people who have greatly contributed to APD. This led to the birth of APD Outstanding Contribution Awards.
Established in 1993, APD has not only weaved opportunities for participating organizations to improve and evolve their package design, but has also created countless intercultural exchanges across countries. We would thus like to express our sense of gratitude to our respected APD predecessors with the APD Outstanding Contribution Awards at APD Nara 2020.
APD will award one APD Contribution Award winner from each participating organization at APD NARA.

I would like to give an applause to the Chair and members of the JPDA for hosting the APD despite the difficult international circumstances caused by COVID-19. Congratulations once again for the 60th anniversary of the JPDA.
While successfully serving as the Chair of the KPDA, I had strong pride in conducting exchanges and activities with the APD. I am greatly honored and pleasured to receive this contribution award.
Let me close my message by expressing my expectations for a new design trend and paradigm for the era of digital culture, seeking convergence of diverse designs and online conferences from different countries participating in the APD.
