How to Measure, Prioritize and Visualize UX Impact

Vitaly Friedman

Ever struggled to prove your design's worth beyond "it looks better" or "users like it more"? This session tackles the challenge every UXer faces: translating design decisions into language that matters to stakeholders. Prepare to discover the metrics and methods that transform subjective design discussions into objective business conversations. Warning: once you learn these approaches, you might never want to work without them again.

Crafting a UX Portfolio for the AI Era

Aneta Kmiecik

The landscape has shifted, and your portfolio needs to shift with it. But how do you showcase your relationship with AI without looking like you're just following trends? This session reveals the strategic approach to positioning yourself in a world where AI is everywhere, but human insight remains irreplaceable. Discover what forward-thinking designers are doing differently to stand out in an increasingly competitive field.

How to be Strategic About Your UX Design Decisions

Tatjana Zavadja

What separates designers who stumble through projects from those who navigate with confidence and precision? The answer lies in approach, not talent. This talk uncovers the systematic thinking patterns that turn uncertainty into clarity and guesswork into strategy. You'll learn why some designers consistently make decisions that drive results while others constantly second-guess themselves.

This zone is about building momentum for lasting success. Come ready to accelerate your skills and leave with tools that will keep you ahead of the curve.
