Description

Free Networking & Keynote Speech Event  

After what only can be described as a whirlwind year for digital, 2014 is set to be an explosive year for innovation and discovery across our industry. The Digital Pond has a series of meetup events planned in 2014 that will inform and inspire designers, developers and marketing professionals alike.

Our first meetup will be on the 6th February in our brand new location at The Clerkenwell Centre in London. Following up from the huge success of the User Experience (UX) Strategies meetup in September, we have brought together some of the biggest names in UX and web design to talk about the importance of creating enjoyable environments and journeys online.

We're massively excited to have the brilliant Andy Budd along to join us for the first Digital Pond of the year. Asides from being co-founder at Clearleft, Andy is nothing short of a UX legend, imparting his expertise and experiences at many notable design conferences and events across the globe.

We will also be treating you lucky so-and-so’s to the one and only Evgenia Grinblo. Jenny’s design and UX prowess has taken her around the world, helping enterprise clients to understand their users better. As the User Experience Specialist at Future Workshops and a seasoned public speaker, we cannot wait to hear her story.

Last but not least, we are delighted to announce that Cyber-Duck’s Matt Gibson will be speaking for us. Matt spearheads all design work at Cyber-Duck from the early research and planning stages, to sketching and designing interfaces, right through to helping deliver working code.

Andy Budd - User Experience Designer and CEO of Clearleft
