Product Discovery tips for newbies

by Veronica di Marco, Senior Product Manager @ eRecruiter

That Product Discovery is a crucial part of building successful products is no longer news to Product Managers or Designers. However, it is not always easy to get started with it, especially if you don’t have a research background and it’s not already a habit in your company. What can you do then? In my talk, I’ll share some practical tips to set up and carry out discovery activities that allow you to make the most of it.

Built-In, Not Bolt-On: Making Accessibility Foundational in UX and UI

by Melissa Lagos & Jörg Linder, User Experience Consultants @ MAI Digitalberatung

Accessibility isn’t a nice-to-have—it’s a design superpower. In this talk, you’ll see how thinking about accessibility from day one transforms the way we create digital products. Through hands-on examples from real projects, we’ll explore how inclusive practices can seamlessly flow into ideation, UX, and UI design. The takeaway: accessibility done early not only makes products more usable for everyone, it makes the design process smoother and the results more impactful.

Let’s shape UX Vienna @ uxcon vienna

Interactive session with Emanuel Jochum, Freelance Experience Designer

We’ll team up to design and finalize our contributions for uxcon vienna: the UX Vienna creative booth and the Walk & Talk session. It’s a chance to bring in your ideas, share perspectives, and help shape how our community shows up at Europe’s friendliest UX conference. In this session, we’ll do rapid ideation in small groups (no worries: it’s voluntary), then share and cluster ideas, and finish with a quick dot-voting.
