Call for Lightning Talk Submissions!
Posted: April 9, 2018 Filed under: events Comments Off on Call for Lightning Talk Submissions!Do you have a tactical tool or technique you use and can’t live without on a daily basis? Do you think it’s something every designer should know about, embrace, and use every day?
If so we’d love to hear from you for our ongoing series of Lightning Talks . For these events, we are looking for 4 designers to come in and each give a short 12-15 minute talk about something they’re passionate about.
The next Lightning Talk is August 1st in Richmond VA. We still have spots available!
For your submission, we’ll need the following info…
– A working title (doesn’t have to be final) for your talk.
– A brief overview (let’s say a paragraph) laying out what you would cover and why you think it matters.
– An example of how the audience could immediately apply what they’ve learned in their day-to-day job/life or immediately into their craft/practice.
If you’re interested email your submission to info@richmondux.com

WHO’S THIS WORKSHOP FOR?
Anyone with tough problems to solve – designers, developers, product managers, marketers, content strategists, CEOs/founders, even human resources. The Design Sprint process has been used to solve a wide array of problems from the UX of digital products to wayfinding in a museum to the hiring process at Google.
This will be a fast-paced, intense workshop. While not a requirement, it will be most successful if all participants have at least some familiarity with the Design Sprint process. Google Ventures offers an excellent primer on Design Sprints to help you get familiar.
AGENDA
3:30 – 4:00: Arrive, get settled and warm up (it is a sprint after all!)
4:00 – 6:00: Sprint!
6:00 – 6:30: Cool down and say goodbye
