19. CONFERENCE THEMES
Day 1 - Collaboration through Diversity
•
Our key message is to encourage people to learn to work with others, respect
others’ professions, be collaborative for the greater good.
•
Likewise, we hope our sponsors & partners demonstrate similar values towards
their competitors and refrain from “hard-selling” products or services.
Day 2 - Bridging Insights into Design
•
Our key message is to advocate organisations and practitioners to make effort to
extract customer insights to drive key design decisions.
•
As organiser, we hope to understand the attendees’ needs and goals for attending
UXSG conference through the interactions and dialogue (conference mobile app,
surveys, informal discussion, lunch-time sharing etc)
