On November 9, 2023, the WUD Leipzig took place for the seventh time. The theme was „Collaboration & Cooperation.“ At the Paulinum at the University of Leipzig, UX experts from industry and research discussed the importance of collaboration and cooperation in designing user-friendly products and services.

Dominique Winter’s keynote addressed the question of how companies can become UX-competent. Michelle Greisner and Christin Hermann offered tips for increasing user involvement. Heide Hüttner showed how to navigate the jungle of tools. Florian Holzhäuser presented the successful integration of UX into the Scrum process. Benjamin Rogg explored how “New Work” is changing collaboration. Holm Hänsel explained how AI can be used in global design and development projects. Katharina Urbantat and Birgit Horn demonstrated how UX writing works. Lea Kunz and Felix Loos reported on soccer-playing robots. Kevin Lefeuvre introduced BIBO, the dancing cup.

The day wrapped up with an open discussion and a cozy get-together.
