IxDA + Experience Makers | The Shape of Remote Design Work: A Panel Discussion
Details
IxDA and Experience Makers invite you to join us in an interactive Zoom webinar where a group of panelists, with mixed experiences and phases of life, will be discussing the shape of remote design work today. Our two host groups are excited to come together and discuss the timely topic of working from home. Whether you are dipping your toes for the first time or have swam for years, working from home while maintaining the design process with teams presents unique challenges and opportunities. We will have representation from design, research, and development in this webinar. Come join the conversation!
