How Web Design will reinvent manufacturingMike Kuniavsky
Picture a world where Amazon.com is a factory. Products are made as needed, based on direct input from users to designers and developers. Consumption directly drives production, and data informs design. If we weren't talking about physical products, this would sound a lot like Web/app interaction design, but the worlds of making atoms and bits are quickly colliding, and the implications are profound. By mapping what we have learned creating analytics-driven digital design to the physical world, we can change how everything is made, for the better.
Trends are the natural changes in behaviours or proceedings. We like to be aware of those indicators for inspiration and guidance. At the beginning of every year we look at UX, UI trends and emerging technologies to get that guidance from.

Privacy by Design workshop for Developers - School for Computer Science (HBO-...Anne Marleen
This workshop was held several times during the week of 10th-14th of December as part of the semester 'Designing Mobile Experiences' at the department of Computer Science at the Faculty of Digital Media and Creative Industries Amsterdam.
This workshop is dedicated to Developers and the development of privacy-friendly services & systems. It explores hands-on & playfully how a privacy-friendly service & system can be designed & developed, according to 8 Privacy Design Strategies & Tactics (Hoepman, 2018). For homework, we asked students to explore privacypatterns.org as well, in order to see if students were able to work from a strategic perspective towards an implementation plan. Another goal of this workshop is to explore if this theoretical foundation can become a potential language for both Designers & Developers, when they are creating privacy-friendly services & systems together.
The explosion of big data and digital information has transpired with little attention to ethical considerations of consent, privacy, and confidentiality. In our 00’s strive for sharing & connecting, we seem to have lost the potential quality of the private sphere, resulting in an ambiguous unlimited spreading of personal data to both governmental and commercial parties. At this moment we have no notion of the unintended consequences, algorithmic bias, nor do we know much about the troubling power of persuasive technology. Although GDPR has resulted in awareness and strategic implementation of privacy-sensitive information, we still need to look for methods & tools to implement privacy into our daily designer-development workflows, so that we can guide ourselves towards the creation of privacy-friendly systems that maintain the basic values of democracy.
2015 International CES - What I learned at CES and what brands have to knowMatt Doherty
For the past three years I’ve attended International CES. Each year I break down the show into larger thematic takeaways and trends that every brand should know. I look for the bigger picture and implications of technology moving forward and unveil the opportunities at hand over the course of the four day conference. Give it a read. Get inspired by something.

There's a need for more information about the wearable tech industry.
Over the past few months I've met countless entrepreneurs that don't know where to gather information from, I've met investors and VCs that are unaware of what's going on and therefor are unwilling to take risks and invest where its most needed, i.e, in the pre/seed stages, where all the wearable startups are actually are, this year and next year.
Because of this reason (but not only) Israel is very much behind Silicon Valley in this industry and it needs to change and one of the ways to change this is by building a community and pushing knowledge and education.
This presentation highlights the importance of engaging all of the community in Innovation and incersing importance of Collaboraion and the mobile smartphone. It covers tips on trendwatching as a way to stimulate creativity along with some future predictions to give ideas on business opportunities and presents practical tips for small business operating in Main Shopping Street precincts
For one week each year Sin City plays host to the next-generation of innovations and technologies before they’re introduced to the marketplace. This year, more than 200,000 attendees came to CES to walk through 2.5 million square feet of trade show space to see the latest drones, connected cars, TVs and smartphones, and even a VR device that gives you the sensation of flying through the sky like a superhero.
Y&R sent some of our brightest minds to take in the sights and sounds of CES 2016. Here’s what they had to say:

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

4. Observe how people create
workarounds to fix (small) frustra8ons,
or temporary solu8ons,…
It could indicate there is a bigger
problem to solve!
example: airport context, not losing things.
“people take pics of their own car,
in large parkings to help them retrieve their car
a7er 2 weeks.”
5. example: airport context, not losing things.
“The shoes of this girl make a sound at every
step to help her parents not lose her in the

example: airport context, not losing things.
“Do you no?ce how people are struggling with
the same black suitcases? How to fix this?”
Look around you, every day you can easily spot
+10 problems that need a beTer solu;on.
6. People discuss ‘problems’ on specialized Q/A plaZorms.
Browse to find similar pains that beg for a solu8on.
example: “How to + Invoicing”
on quora.com
example:
“/r/invoicing” on Reddit.com
7. Track what people search for via
Keyword monitor services
e.g. hTp://keywordtool.io
Filter on ‘Youtube’. Many use
this plaQorm to find video guides
on how to solve specific problems.
11. 3 op;ons
How your own assets of your company
can lead to new ideas & revenue streams:
Sharing Alt Use Create
12. The most obvious, but least exci;ng way:
Make some of your own resources/assets
available to others + ask for rent or other reward.
example: construc@on industry
Via plaForms like anyquip.com companies can
rent out their assets that are idle or unused.
Sharing Alt Use Create
13. Find an alterna;ve use:
Let others access your assets for a different purpose.
example: Logis@cs & Pharma
Leverage the global distribu?on network of
Coca-Cola to distribute live-saving medicine to
the most rural areas. Coca-cola is everywhere!
Sharing Alt Use Create
14. example: Logis@cs
The US Postal office has equipped some of their
trucks with cameras & sensors to monitor noise
levels, pavement,… to offer to the local city.
example: Smart city
Some ci?es re-use their ‘trash cans’ to monitor
crowd density by integra?on of wifi sensors to
track smartphones nearby.
15. Most difficult op;on:
Use your exis8ng assets (+ new assets) to create something
new that could be valorized.
Sharing Alt Use Create
example: Byproducts from Cereal
An easy starter is to focus on “waste” that your
assets already create. An addi?onal process step
could make your “waste” valuable to others.
16. Trends
Spot changes in consumer behaviour & society in general
that could impact your industry.
17. It’s not your goal to predict the future.
Just use Trends & Forecasts to ask beTer “what if” ques;ons:
Time
example: “What if consumers only trust companies that
are fully transparent about their supply chain?”
18. Example tool (basic insights)
trends.google.com/trends/explore
Example: Rising interest for “parental leave” in Germany
20. History
You don’t need to re-invent everything. Old ideas, in a new
context can trigger new opportuni8es!
21. Old ideas?
Ask yourself, why didn’t it work at that 8me?
What can we do be`er today?
1967 2017
22. Browse old (failed) patents on patents.google.com
Some8mes a patent is not the right solu8on yet,
but indicates there is at least a relevant problem to solve.
