Schedule
Talks and workshops to captivate & inspire
Each day of the conference focuses on a different theme - you can join us for all of them or a pick a day that suits you and your team best. We have all our talks in the morning, and then after lunch everyone heads off to their chosen workshops to do some hands on, practical learning.
Designing Products
Day One focuses on designing amazing products that deliver value to your customers and your business. We’ll explore the challenges of applying a user-centered approach to agile delivery, and how designers and product people can set themselves up for success as part of a cross-functional team. This includes gaining a better understanding of the language and levers of business, in order to become a more strategic and influential partner. Who to bring: Bring your product managers, product designers, and scrum masters.

And once you’ve developed that insight, how do you get buy-in from the rest of the company? Who to bring: Bring your researchers, service designers and CX team.

Designing for the Future
Day Three is all about looking at the technologies, challenges and trends shaping the future of our work. How can we better predict and deal with the unintended consequences of our designs? Could Design Futures be a way of taking a longer and more strategic view of our impact as Designers? If so, what tools and techniques can we deploy to maximise user value while minimizing misuse? Who to bring: Bring your managers, executives and leadership team
