UX Workshops
The choice is yours
With a Conference + Workshop Ticket, you can choose between three different Full-day workshops on Wednesday (as long as there are seats available). In addition, regardless of your ticket type, you can add a half-day workshop on Monday to your event experience.
Each workshop has a capacity limit and will no longer be available once it is reached.
Please mind that we will keep all workshops up-to-date and include new findings and technologies along the way. The description can therefore be slightly updated in the coming months, but the learnings and topic will (of course) not change!
