📌 tech.fast: Designing for Seniors / Enhancing Accessibility and Usability for All (Co-host Softhouse)

Join us for a thought-provoking discussion on creating user-centered designs for seniors. We’ll explore the importance of accessibility and delve into unique challenges that aging brings—for seniors and for us all.

See how designing for seniors can enhance usability for everyone, and discover ways to help users without them realizing they are being helped. This talk will offer fresh perspectives and practical strategies to make our work better for seniors.

Don’t miss this opportunity to dive into inclusivity! Bring your questions—there will be a Q&A, and you may even have the chance to try out some of the tools used to design products for seniors!

Meetup attendees

Members can show their interest to attend a meetup by clicking “Attend this meetup” button. In addition, since Local Groups events are open to all, non-members can also attend these meetups.

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meetup (and you’re welcome to do the same), but their non-member friends will not be shown as “attending” because this feature is only available to members.

P.S.: Note that the number of attendees is not an indication of its value! Small meetups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
