We want to share an important update about the Design Ventura programme.

After 15 successful years, our partnership with Deutsche Bank has come to an end. We are grateful for their continuous support over this time, for all that we have achieved together and the impact we were able to create.

The full programme will pause from September 2025 while we work to secure a new sponsor. During this time, we are actively exploring new ways to offer engagement opportunities for schools, and we will share updates with you in the near future.

Although the live competition is on hold, the spirit of Design Ventura continues through nearly ten years of free learning resources. These include lesson plans, project briefs, films, and activities that have supported teaching in Design & Technology, Art & Design, Business Studies, and Enterprise. All materials remain freely available online to enrich classroom learning (no registration needed.)

Since its launch, Design Ventura has engaged over 160,000 students from more than 3,400 schools, showcasing the power of design to inspire creativity, problem-solving, and teamwork. While the full programme is paused, these resources allow teachers and students to continue drawing on its legacy in the classroom.

We know how much Design Ventura has meant to both students and teachers, and we remain committed to keeping its impact alive while we work towards the next chapter.

Thank you for your continued support and for being an essential part of the Design Ventura community.
