2019 – Minimal Tech, Activism, and ‘Are We On The Same Page?”

In 2019 we looked at products and design strategies that help people live better and be more connected. We delved into design strategies or products that can help people avoid a tech overload. But also how activism can be incorporated into design and how collaboration tools are shaping the work of creatives.

2017 – Embrace Failure, Conversational UI’s and Product Design DNA

In 2017 we explored how to design products that no longer have a visible interface. We asked ourselves: how do we make sure that the design DNA extends to all the touchpoints of the products? And how do we embrace failure, accept when we’re wrong and design our way out of it?

Talks from Spotify, Netflix, Vox Media, Uber and many more!
