We advise companies and their executives on the path to digital transformation. We prepare companies for the transformation of a networked, global world and accompany them in the development of new working environments, the use of digital tools and the setup of their teams.
The transfer of knowledge about methods, techniques and tools of the digital world is the basis of all skills. Therefore we provide the theoretical foundation in short input units and then apply the presented methods and tools in practice.
Our credo is "Learning by Doing" - the participants of our seminars learn the application of relevant methods and techniques by means of practical exercises in a co-creative team process. The results of the practical work are then presented.
Learning is fun. Play and fun, trying out and making mistakes play an important role in learning. Only what triggers emotions can have an effect. We support you playfully to reach your goal.
Visualization is an important and powerful tool to make ideas and concepts understandable. We animate our participants to think visually and encourage them to draw their thoughts.
The results of the individual and group work are presented to the team or to all participants. Everyone is asked to communicate their work verbally, visually and argumentatively and put it into the right light.
All participants are invited to criticize - positive as well as negative. It is important to communicate what likes and dislikes and to give suggestions for improvements. In the dialogue with others and the open exchange of arguments, we make it possible to better reflect on the effect of one's own actions and to broaden one's own horizon.
All thematic blocks will be concluded with a retrospective. The experiences made are reflected in individual and group work. We create an instance of conscious perception and mentally repeat the experiences in order to better integrate them.
The power lies in the peace and quiet. Everyone is invited to explore themselves, to consciously perceive experiences and to let experiences work. We create moments of peace and look together into the inner self to manifest the acquired knowledge.

Mobile Lean UX design, and development process
Overview of the main workflow when designing a mobile product, from its conceptualization to launching.
How to choose: Mobile app vs. mobile website
Should it be an app or does a mobile website fit the users needs better?. Not everything needs to be an app. In some cases, a mobile website will do. Learn to choose when to make what.
Practical exercise: Given a product idea, participants will need to decide between making it as a mobile app or mobile web, and explain the benefits of their decision.
Ideas that are worth making as an app
Everyone has an idea for an app, but does it worth it? The key aspects to know if you have a good concept in front of you.
Taking advantage of the mobile’s phone hardware
A small computer in your pocket, learn how to take advantage of your phone’s hardware potential.
Navigation systems for both web and apps
When structuring your app or site, you need to know how to think navigation from the very beginning of your project.
Practical exercise: Sketching low-fidelity wireframes on paper to accomplish the main flow of the app, and then making a navigable prototype from it.
Interaction patterns in iOS and Android
Similar but different: we’ll learn how the same things are accomplished in both iOS and Android, following each one’s particular conventions.
Interaction design for touch screens
From touch target sizes, to interaction areas and ways of holding of a device. Learn how all this will affect your design decisions.
Dealing with data and complex information
Forms, filters and menus are normally used to split information. We’ll review good practices to use them.
Practical exercise: Participants will design a small search system using filters and resources to split information on screen.
Visual design on mobile: color, typography, grids
Visual design has to adapt to a smaller screen than a desktop, so this will affect the way all visual elements and layout are presented.
iOS and Android design languages
Both operating systems base their design decisions on principles. We’ll see how to follow them, and when to break them.
Sketch / Figma introduction
We’ll have a basic introduction to learn the tools that you’ll need to design an UI.
Practical exercise: Designing medium fidelity wireframes, and then adding interaction with InVision.
Designing a screen in all its states
An approach on how to design interfaces that change over time, and that have many intermediate states that are often not considered.
Practical exercise: We’ll take a main screen as a base, and participants will design its different loading and intermediate states.
Gestures on mobile devices
How to use gestures on mobile devices as one of the main ways of interacting with information, and how to make the most of them.
Principles of UI animation
How to use animation with care to make transitions, give feedback and reinforce meaning in specific parts of the product.
Micro-interactions
An overview of those ‘small’ interface details that could make a big difference when they are designed in a thoughtful way.
Introduction to animation tools: Framer
Framer is becoming a more and more powerful tool, so we’ll learn how to use its main features to add interaction and animation to prototypes.
Practical exercise: Designing an animation for one part of the app that attendants select.
Preparing assets for developers
The designer’s job should also include handling assets to the rest of the team, and we’ll see what to keep into account when doing that.

Short profile Short profile Short profile Almost 10 years ago, Javier traveled to Barcelona to specialize in mobile design, learning UX for apps since the first versions of iOS and Android. All his experience was put into ‘Designing Mobile Apps’ a book he co-wrote. The repercussions of this project took him to make part of different design events and conferences around the world, such as Colombia 3.0, UX Spain, UX Sofia and different editions of Campus Party. Javier has taught design at ELISAVA and IED, the two most well-known design schools in Barcelona. Besides this, he has held and co-organised design workshops in more than 15 countries around the world, from Brazil to China.
Wonderful course with the most relevant agenda of all the UX courses and conferences I've been to. If you actually want to improve your skills as a Mobile UX designer, I highly recommend this course. Javier is a great and funny trainer as well! 🙂

Nowadays, differentiation and success on the market are not achieved by features, but by a unique customer experience, new services and connections between products and services. With special processes and methods, service design thinking helps you to identify innovation potential and to create attractive and useful services for your customers, which can be implemented efficiently by you as a provider. This seminar enables you to see the innovation and optimization potential in your own offers so that you can successfully design services and holistic customer experience.
When people are using a product or a service, they come in touch with various interfaces and communication channels. The design of such “touchpoints” often lays in the hands of several different teams, which not rarely lead to gaps and breaches in the customer experience. The demand for specially skilled designers, managers and consultants, who can orchestrate a consistent and successful customer experience, is increasing in private as well as in public sector.
You will get to know methods and tools from human-centered design, which will help you to understand your customers better and perceive pain points and improvement potential from their point of view. From there, you will be taught to think at adaptable and innovative solutions which can be communicated and implemented effectively. The perspective of service design thinking will help you to see your own offers in an integrated way and recognize new opportunities for service expansion or enhancement in all phases, from acquisition to follow-up.
This seminar was developed for people who are responsible for the conceptual and strategic development of new services and a holistic, cross-channel customer experience in organizations, agencies, institutions or NGO’s. These are, for example, service planners and managers, project and product managers, marketing and sales managers, customer service managers, designers and design managers from all fields (user experience, visual design, product design) as well as architects, scrum masters, product owners, business consultants and start-ups.
On the first day you will receive an overview of the field of service design which will include exercise, so that you can experience the way of thinking, methods and tools, and reflect on them over the course of the seminar.

User experience has become the most important factor for designing successful digital products. The quality of the user experience determines whether websites, apps and software are used or not. User experience design has therefore become a key factor, a touch on the scales. An excellent “user experience” ensures satisfied users, creates better customer loyalty, increases credibility, ensures positive reception in media and app stores and enhances a company’s reputation.
The profession of the user experience designer has become increasingly differentiated. Knowledge and skills in the professions UX Design, Usability and Interaction Design are more important and in demand than ever. It is becoming more and more important to apply the methods of these disciplines in a concentrated form in order to quickly come to pragmatic solutions and to develop them iteratively. In the spirit of the Lean UX and Agile UX mindsets, we will familiarize you with the development of user scenarios, user story maps and content strategies to develop information architectures, wireframes and interactive prototypes, which will then be tested.
In this workshop we teach the participants the methodologies of the User Experience Design and provide them with a lean toolset (Lean UX). With the help of agile methods (design sprints) you will learn to find intelligent and practicable solutions with the help of different stakeholders. You will learn to design interactive, digital products with an excellent user experience in a very short time.
The workshop was developed for designers and design managers, project and product managers, web and software developers, speakers and editors, copywriters and concept developers, marketing and content managers, media and information officers, information and interaction managers, usability engineers, scrum masters and product owners, who are responsible for the conceptual and strategic development of websites and apps in agencies, companies and organisations.
