SUMMARY:Curious Connections: A Morning of Unexpected Encounters
DESCRIPTION:What happens when you bring a room full of curious creative people together and give them permission to connect a little differently? We’re not entirely sure…and that’s kind of the point! \n  \nLeave your fun facts at home. Think more summer camp than corporate icebreaker. Come ready to move around\, make a secret handshake with a stranger\, discover the room’s reigning typeface trivia champ\, and follow a conversation somewhere unexpected. We may not have chairs. We definitely won’t have traditional networking. \nCome curious. See what happens. \nEvent Sponsor:\nUniversity of Cincinnati

SUMMARY:Out of This World Product Design: CX at the Cincinnati Observatory
DESCRIPTION:Join the Cincinnati design community for an exclusive\, behind-the-scenes look at how one of the city’s most historic institutions builds unforgettable customer experiences. \nHow do you bridge the gap between a 180-year-old telescope and today’s modern audiences? The team at the Cincinnati Observatory is doing exactly that. In this session\, we will explore the intersection of physical and digital product design\, diving into how the Observatory masterfully connects historical preservation with cutting-edge user engagement. \nFrom the architectural service design of a new building to the UX of a completely redesigned website and the interactive elements of their public programs\, you will discover the omnichannel strategies used to inspire the next generation of curious minds. \nWhether your focus is UX\, digital product design\, or holistic service design\, this is a unique opportunity to see how legacy and innovation collide to create stellar user journeys. \nIn the last portion\, you will get the opportunity to view the night sky at the Observatory\, weather permitting. \nIn-kind Sponsor:\nTekSystems \n  \nEvent Collaborators:\nIxDA Cincinnati \nThe Cincinnati Observatory
