Radek Sidun (Czech Republic) is a typographer and type designer whose work focuses on font systems and diacritics across global languages. Co-founder of Briefcase Type Foundry and educator at UMPRUM in Prague, his practice bridges type design, research, and international typographic culture.

Studio Komplekt (Bulgaria), founded by Adriana Andreeva and Boyana Gyaurova, is a Sofia-based platform dedicated to design culture and curation. Through Melba Design Initiatives and international programming, they have played a key role in shaping contemporary design discourse in Bulgaria and beyond.
