DESIGNING THE FUTURE WE WANT
World Usability Day is worldwide day of events around the world that brings together communities of professional, industrial, educational, citizen and governmental groups for our common objective: to ensure that technology helps people live to their full potential and helps create a better world for all citizens everywhere.
ISG will celebrate World Usability Day on November 14, 2019 from 10 AM - 1 PM with an open house style format where you can pop in for specific parts of the event, or stay for the entire time. We have gathered some of the agency’s human-centered design and usability experts to help guide us on an exploration of this year’s topic: Designing the Future We Want.
