Nina Valkanova
as recording during on 17 June 2021 as part of Innov8rs Connect Unconference.
From designing for mechanical interaction to designing for connection, engagement and collaboration - UX design has always shaped our behavior. In recent years we have observed the recognition of its strategic value within the highest levels of corporations. Yet now, more than ever, we need to reflect on the unprecedented impact of UX design on people, society and the planet.
How can we make sure our ideas turn into meaningful outcomes beyond profitability and a smooth, engaging experience?
In this session, Nina shared an expanded view on Experience Design, and discuss a set of concrete approaches, which can help us shape the products and services of tomorrow with a responsible, impact-driven mindset.
