What is Semiofest?
Semiofest is first and foremost, A Celebration of Semiotic Thinking. Semiofest is also a collective, set up to champion and propagate the best in applied semiotic thinking. We help facilitate learning about semiotics through an annual event that moves location every year.
Semiofest came into existence as a platform where practising semioticians, both academic and commercial could come together to exchange ideas, viewpoints, insights and methods in order to share and learn from one another.
It has since become an annual event that attracts not only Semioticians but also qualitative researchers, insights managers and business people.

What is Applied
Semiotics?
Applied semiotics is a branch of semiotics. Applied semiotics uses a range of interpretive frameworks to deconstruct meaning and helps us to understand human signs, communication and culture more deeply.
We seek to create a forum where semiotic theorists, practitioners, consultants, researchers and students can come together for mutual learning.
