UX STRAT 2022 Events Update

I'm excited to announce our 2022 events, designed to shine a spotlight on the best Product Design Strategy & Innovation work being done in the world today. Below is a summary, reach out if you have questions: https://bit.ly/2Qpgd3E

Want to Host a UX Strategy Workshop?

UX STRAT is looking for hosts for our UX Strategy Workshop, facilitated by UX STRAT's organizer Paul Bryan. The UX Strategy Workshop has been hosted on-site by Netflix, Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, Booking.com, Microsoft, IBM and many other industry-leading companies, and it's going back on tour in 2022. The workshop has been reformulated for all product team members who want to understand strategic design methodologies and frameworks, rather than for people who are already UX experts as in the past. If your office is centrally located in a major UX hub city and you want to find out more about hosting a UX Strategy workshop, get in touch: https://bit.ly/2Qpgd3E
