From the tasmeem website (2006):
This year a wide range of speakers in Communication Design, Fashion Design and Interior Design will be present their essays and make speeches. 12 Keynote designers are: Bruce Mau (Bruce Mao Design, Toronto), Stefan Sagmeister (Sagmeister Inc, New York), Saki Mafundikwa (Zimbabwe Institute of Vigital Arts), Mario Gagliardi (Allevio Design, Vienna), Aly Khalifa (Designbox, Raleigh), Steve Badanes (Design/Build, University of Washington, Seattle), Khaled Asfour (Cairo University), Eva Maddox (Eva Maddox Associates, Chicago), Ruben & Isabel Toledo (Toledo, New York), Li Edelkoort (Studio Edelkoort, Paris) and Rasem Badran.

This would be the third time which the conference will be held. As seen with Tasmeem Doha 2004, a design conference provided the opportunities to communicate many messages, share insights and experience diverse perspectives for a variety of audiences and contributors.

Tasmeem (Design) Doha 2006 will be held in February 20-23, 2006 in VCU School of the Arts in Qatar. VCU School of the Arts in Qatar was established by Virginia Commonwealth University and the Qatar Foundation for Education, Science and Community Development to provide the highest level of design education and training for the citizens of Qatar, the region and beyond.
