Smart Responsive Interface Design Patterns

Are you ready for a design challenge? In this brand new workshop, Vitaly Friedman, creative lead and front-end/UI consultant behind Smashing Magazine, will be taking a microscopic examination of common interface components and problems appearing in responsive user interfaces. In this workshop, we’ll be spending an entire day drawing and designing responsive interfaces, starting from accordions, to date/time pickers, sliders, feature comparisons, car configurators all the way to insurance calculators and trip planners.

The workshop is intended for intermediate/advanced designers and developers who have an understanding of responsive design, interface design and mobile design. Most techniques are borrowed from mid-size and large-scale real-life projects, such as large eCommerce projects, online magazines and web applications. We won't cover the basics, instead, the workshop covers more advanced — and often obscure and innovative techniques.

Front-End Performance: Building Faster Websites

Every case-study, every report, and every bit of feedback always tells us the same thing: speed matters. It’s good for users, it’s good for accessibility, and it’s good for business. But why are modern browsing experiences so slow? If technology is getting better, why are websites getting worse?

In this workshop, we’ll take an in-depth look at:

  • How the network really works, and how to design around it;

  • How to keep websites fast whilst keeping clients and stakeholders happy;

  • How to optimise our assets for faster delivery;

  • How to trick the browser into delivering assets with different priorities;

  • How to measure and profile performance wins and losses;

  • A whole host of tips, tricks, and techniques to help us deliver the same experiences in record times;

  • A bunch of fascinating little factoids and trivia which help shine a light on what’s really going on under the hood;

  • How to prepare for the web (and its users) of tomorrow;

  • Lots of naughty little micro-optimisations, just for fun;

  • And a lot, lot more.

How To Sell Into The US Market

The US GDP per capita is higher than that of the entire European Union. On any company's path to globalization, such a vast and abundant market serves as a north star for successful international expansion. But, at the same time, the US is one of the most oversaturated and competitive landscapes to tackle. The sales processes, messaging, and culture is vastly different than the majority of the world. As a foreigner, how does one penetrate this market? Where do you begin? Messaging? Investment? Sales?

For this workshop we will explore the different pieces necessary to begin to sell into the US market, work with you to identify and highlight your strong points, mitigate your weaknesses, and begin to build the foundation a company needs to gain market share in the world's largest and most sophisticated ecosystem.

Intro to <Design Ethically>

More than ever, we are realizing that our products have vast effects on society and that taking time to consider the ethical consequences behind decisions is crucial. This is not another rant on why we need ethics in tech. We know that. This is an exploration of actionable steps that teams (especially designers) can take to steer products in the right direction. In a follow-up to her talk, "Design Ethically: From Imperative to Action," Kat Zhou will be hosting an interactive workshop that introduces <Design Ethically> methodology. This methodology has been taught at a variety of tech conferences and piloted at IBM. Attendees will leave this workshop with an understanding of how to forecast effects for products and design for positive impact.

How to Pitch a Tech Journalist? Put Yourself in Their Shoes!

Want to see your company or project in the media more? Do you wonder why much less exciting projects got much more attention and coverage?

In this workshop, we will focus on the art of media pitches – how to capture journalists' attention, get your story noticed and eventually covered.

Stephen R. Covey said, "Seek first to understand, then to be understood." And in public relations, this is true tenfold. A successful media pitch lies in the deep understanding of journalist everyday work - his goals, needs, and obstacles. And what better way to understand someone than to walk a mile in their shoes? During this workshop, you will try the job of a tech journalist, and experience the daily ups and downs of this often misunderstood profession. This hands-on experience will help you to understand what journalists are looking for in a good pitch and most importantly - why.

Building chatbots is like building houses. You start with fundamentals.

You have probably heard about chatbots by now. They are currently one of the most talked-about topics in Tech-Biz. You might be thinking about creating and setting up a chatbot or buy one from dozens of chatbot-companies, but you are not sure how to go about it? Viktor will guide you how to enter this world smoothly and will show you the most common use cases, some numbers and case-studies. And also areas, where chatbot won’t work at the current level of technology. Finally, together with Viktor, you will try to build a chatbot on the spot, just to see the difficulties every bot-builder has to face.
