02. UX and Digital Design Week
Date: 12–16 August 2019

“During a whole week you’ll immerse yourself into London’s tech and creative industry exploring the hottest trends and latest inventions. You will have a chance to meet the teams behind the most ground-breaking products and learn how they approach design and UX strategy, work with clients and improve their services. This programme consists of keynote presentations, case studies. fire-side chats, roundtable discussions and mini-workshops all conducted at the actual company offices — that gives an even better perspective on how they work and collaborate.
Some people call our format a ‘design safari’, some say it’s a VIP behind-the-scenes experience or a research trip. This is a very fresh way to learn and explore the industry. And the best part is — you will spend this week as a part of a small group of 25 like-minded entrepreneurs, UX designers and product managers from around the globe.”
