Initial Situation
• Approximatly 500 – 600 „UX designers“
(via LinkedIn and other secret sources)
• And 80 open positions related to UX
(via UXjobs.cz)
• The market is still „under construction“
• Lack of education…

The Idea …

6.
Why Exhibition?
• Low threshold
– no entry fee.
• Low time dependency
– not as long as a conference / barcamp (too short).
• No disruption
– take people out ofon-line comfort zone…

7.
The Goals
• Introduce the topic of „digital design“
to wider audience than just few fellow
professionals that way…

8.
The Goals
„So even your mother
finally understood what
we do ...“

9.
The Goals
• Try to close the gap between
a digital and the real world.

10.
Target Groups
• Design (offline) colleagues
– to understand better our job
• Business
– to understand the need of investments
in to good digital design
• Students
– for future career
• General public…

Lessons Learned 1
Next time we should make it
BIGGER
because the effort will be almost
the same.

Now it’s your turn:
