What value do we seek to deliver this year?
During this year's edition, we want to expand the knowledge of the digital product development among all groups directly involved in the creative process.
We are planning lectures focused on UX design. In this part, some of the most important topic areas will be research and data analysis, as well as product and business strategy. We would love to hear about growth design and responsible design. We want to emphasize the importance of inclusion and accessibility.
In the parts for the front-end and low-code developers, we will focus on web standards, accessibility, and performance. In the context of digital platforms, headless and personalized websites on no-code platforms will be prime topics.
The general part of the conference will focus on team management, knowledge management, career development, and workflow optimization. We want to touch on topics related to artificial intelligence and consider the areas and extent to which we can use it. We are also interested in the ethics and responsibility of designers and developers for the products they create.
