Most (if not all) startups today are focused on building applications for the mobile. What is often an ignored or unknown aspect is the concept of immersive user experiences. Building an app which engages users with a solid user interface and a powerful functionality is key to acceptance. Design plays a very crucial role right from the seed stage of the idea of building the application.
POCC has organized a talk from the experts in the field of design, who would like to share their experiences in creating immersive user experiences for the mobile. Since the talk will be based on case studies and some theory, you will be able to gain insight into the world of design thinking.
