The Power of Insight-driven design

Room 32, 3rd floor

15th November, 17:00-17:30

When practiced properly, user-centred design should start with formative research. Using various techniques, we find out about the end user’s needs and the context of use. This kind of research can produce some spectacular insights, which can inform our design and increase the likelihood of our digital product’s success.
This talk will cover methods for uncovering those insights and look at some case studies where insights have transformed the design team’s thinking and influenced the end product.
