We are proud to host an exclusive UX workshop with the author Jaime Levy geared for UX practitioners & product teams.
UX strategy (aka Design Strategy or Product Strategy) is the process that should be started first before the design or development of a digital product begins. It’s the vision of a solution that needs to be validated with real potential customers to prove that it’s desired in the marketplace. It relies on empirical, lightweight tactics that quickly move you and your team in the right direction.
Whether you are a product/UX designer, product manager/owner, entrepreneur, or part of an innovation team, this workshop offers an impactful way to quickly get up-to-speed on the practice of UX/product strategy techniques for devising innovative digital products and services.

Jaime Levy, author of the best seller UX Strategy (4,8/5 Amazon) will conduct this comprehensive workshop offering participants a high-level overview of the methodology along with hands-on experience of how to conduct the techniques.
