WHAT IS UX UTSAV?

An intensive User Experience Design Conference for

professionals and the first event of its kind to be held in India,

UX Utsav will be two full days of inspirational talks and

hands-on workshops presented by top, international

UX experts.

Usability and Accessibility are still relatively new disciplines in

India and despite its vast IT industry there is huge demand for

professional skills in User Experience and Human Computer

Interaction to meet the increasing urgency for growth in this

area.

UX Utsav provides a golden opportunity to fill this knowledge

gap. Attendees will be taught via practical, in-depth

workshops and seminars, and will leave equipped with the full

range of skills required to create compelling and positive user

experiences.
