Practitioners & Industry Experiences (cfp)

Take the opportunity to present and discuss your life cycle experiences with other practitioners and researchers, learn from experts, share your own expertise and make new contacts!

What are Practitioners & Industry Experiences?

Industry experiences is the venue for business practitioners, organisations and projects to present their concepts, products and services. We welcome submissions from the area of design (UX, service, interaction, visual etc), user research, technical development, product/project management, entrepreneurship, communication, strategy and more. We specifically welcome submissions demonstrating life cycle aspects of applications or systems in the context of user or customer experience.

What do you submit?

An industry experience submission may tell a story of any phase of concept or product development process. We encourage submissions that describe and demonstrate practices, methods, products or services that have a life cycle perspective, for example in terms of:

  • Gaining user/customer insights
  • How practitioners work - how research is done or used
  • How the market influences the process
  • The role of user/customer research in strategy and innovation

Submission formats

The submission must be a PDF of max. 6 pages. Your submission should include a textual and visual description of the purpose of your project. The review process for Practitioners & Industry Experiences is not anonymised, hence the author names should be included the submission.
