Workshop title:

Hello, I’m a UX designer! :) Or am I?

Summary of workshop:

Keen to explore UX, but not sure what it really is amidst many other terms such as UI, CX, service design, human-centered design, and design thinking? (btw the list goes on :p)

Through hands-on activities, short stories, and a safe space to ask anything you wanted to know about UX, learn about what UX design is in relation to other design disciplines, the joys and challenges of this work, and thoughts about the role of UX designers in a world where technology is changing so quickly.

9:00pm – 9:30pm: After-party at rooftop garden

Note: Choice of breakout session will only be given on a first-come-first-serve basis
