Glug Berlin - Digital Insights
Event Information
Description
IMPORTANT: VENUE CHANGE DUE TO WEATHER - THE PLACE, CHARLOTTENSTR 2, KBERG, 10969
Hello Gluggers,
We are celebrating all things sun and digital at our Summer Special on 20th July.
We are bringing together designers and developers, with a focus on digital insights. A theme close to my heart, we've made this one a bit more special.
We have talks from the amazing Liv Madsen, Developer at Edenspiekermann and Polina Kadkina, UI designer at HelloFresh. We are talking about 'Best working practices' at our panel discussion, sitting developers next to designers from Pivotal Labs, Diesdas Digital, Onefootball and Orderbird to discuss how to align team goals, best processes and communication.
After our panel, we are opening up the floor to you all with a Q&A. Already have a burning question to ask our panellists? Email them over to glugberlin@gmail.com
As always, we have a bar for all you Schörlertrinker & Biertrinker. Austin Fraser bringing the bier, once they are gone they are gone. Thanks also to Orderbird for making it possible to hold the event at The Place.
Pop down, get inspired and have a drink with us.
Glug love,
Lauren

Polina Kadkina
HelloFresh Berlin
UI Designer
Polina is a UI Designer at HelloFresh in Berlin. She views design as a tool to problem-solving and dealing with change, not as a visual or aesthetic practice. Enterprise design is not sexy per se, but it is so much more than designing tables 24/7.
