UX Talks

If you’re passionate about UX and want to learn about it on a bigger scale, we’re getting ready to rock your world!
We’ve invited our Director of Product Strategy & Design, Jessica Hall (US), and our Lead UX Designer, Paul Axente (RO), to talk about what they know best: User Experience, Design & Product Strategy.

The event is for designers and developers, UX practitioners, and anyone looking to learn more about User Experience.

The talks will be followed by a hands-on experience (workshop) where we will take a bad example, and together, turn it into a good one. We will conduct research, brainstorm, find solutions, sketch and present the results.
Hopefully, you will get to experience a day in the life of a UX Designer, our style!

Join us on Tuesday, 14 March at 6 pm, in Cluj-Napoca @ The Office, Building A, Ground Floor, Conference Room C.

Products, regardless of platform (mobile or web), are dangerous – they enable people to interact with each other, express their feelings, meet with friends or help them through the day. This, ladies and gents, is a bad thing and therefore they must be destroyed. I will show a few tricks which you can employ to destroy products.
