NUX Leeds – 26 February 2018 – What happens after we die?
Meetup Details
The next NUX Leeds event is taking place on Monday 26th February at our new home of NUX Leeds: Platform, New Station St, Leeds LS1 4JB.
NUX Leeds events are sponsored by Hippo Digital.
Join us from 6:00pm for food, drinks and networking. Talk starts at 6:30pm.
This month we welcome user researcher Mark Branigan to tell us all about designing within the funeral service.
What happens after we die?
Mark will be discussing why he wanted to work in the funeral sector, what goes into planning a funeral and how his team went about designing a digital service to give funeral directors more time to spend with bereaved people. He’ll look at context, research methods, how this fed into design iterations and discuss what’s next in the funeral industry. It’s a fascinating, multi-faceted subject and there’ll be plenty of time for any questions you have too!
