Workshop

Communication Product Design Workshop

Mark Simpkins, Technical Consultant, Central St Martins School Of Art

Date: Tuesday, February 27
Time: 1:30pm - 3:00pm
Location: Salon E

In this workshop, two leading practitioners take a look at the design of products for communication—not the graphic design and look and feel but, rather, the planning of a product properly for the intended audience.

Mark Simpkins, of St Martin's College, will talk about the design of mobile products when geared around a specific need, and Mussie Shore, a designer by training, will talk about how to apply agile development cycles and rapid prototyping. These practices have been proven to help minimize bad product design. If you're a product manager, innovation manager, or someone looking to launch a new telecom idea, this workshop is an essential mine of takeaway and applicable learning.
