We are very pleased to have award-winning UX consultant, Sophie Freiermuth, share her experience with us at the end of September.

She will provide insights from her attendance and her talk at the recent Agile 2013 conference in Nashville, TN and her thoughts on how Agile and design disciplines like UX, Design and Content can work. Some stories of companies that make it work, and some thoughts on how to board onto an agile team and work best with them.

A wide reaching talk, for current and potential UX practitioners in an agile environment.
