Torino in Italy has been named the World Design Capital for 2008 by the International Council of Societies of Industrial Design (ICSID) in the first European Usability Professionals’ Association (UPA) conference in Autumn 2008.
With web usability and web design rising up the agenda in many public and private sector organisations, the UPA Europe 2008 conference opens the door for hundreds of usability, design experts and researchers to meet and discuss essential concepts.
This conference will demonstrate the design expertise and leadership within the various UPA chapters and usability practitioners throughout Europe,
comments Silvia Zimmermann, the International UPA Director of Organizational Outreach and UPA Switzerland board member.
UPA chapters promote design concepts in government, education and industry and this conference is set to spark off innovative new ways in which we can design better products and user experiences, regardless of sector, raising the profile of web usability worldwide.
