The Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics (SIGraDi) gathers researchers, educators and professionals in architecture, urban design, communication design, Product Design and Art whose work involves the new digital media.

Contents

It is an organization sister to ACADIA, eCAADe, CAADRIA and ASCAAD (see below).

SIGraDi organizes a yearly Congress when the most recent and state of the art digital technologies and applications are presented and debated.

Goals

Facilitate the interchange of information about digital graphics.

Connect research centers yet disconnected in Latin America.

Foster institutions and organs for the convergence and diffusion of each region's activities in the realm of Digital Graphics.

Keep a registry of people and institutions devoted to the production, research and education in our fields of knowledge.

Foster seminars and congresses.

Annual Congress

SIGraDi Congresses

The annual SIGraDi congress is the main event organised under auspices of the association. It is organised by a member in good standing, who volunteers for the organisation. The organiser is supported by members of the International Executive Committee.

During the years, SIGraDi has developed the policy to circulate the conference location in such a way that southern, central and northern areas of Latin America are reached regularly.

In the past years, the following SIGraDi Congresses have been organised
