STHLM Xperience Conference

Welcome to this year's STHLM Xperience Conference. A participatory conference with lectures, practical tips, and workshops. Speakers on stage are experts in their fields.

In order to celebrate World Usability Day, we follow the theme that they set, and this year's theme is Our Health.

Our Health

During the last few years, tech solutions have moved into the digital spaces of all areas of society. One particular field that has seen a great digital transformation is the health sector.

Global healthcare is the key to our survival. On every level, health is critical. These days, most of our conversations start with a discussion of health, “how are you?” and it ends with a good wish to “be well”. Our concern for health goes beyond our own bodies to our planet, which also must be healthy and stable for our survival.
– World Usability Day, WUD.

Join us as we explore different services and activities that are designed to be good for us, and tools that promise to be helpful. Let's get aware of how our digital well-being affects our health, and how constantly being online affects us, and our children. Including looking at aspects such as how solutions are designed with the individual in focus, notifications, nudging, and accessibility.

Date: 10 November 2022 (World Usability Day)
Location: Digital or 7A Posthuset, Mäster Samuelsgatan 70, 111 20 Stockholm, Sweden
