Uber Design Night NYC
Join Uber Design at our NYC office for a night of creative inspiration. Through lightning talks & a panel discussion, we'll be unpacking the theme "Shaping Movement: Design Beyond the Screen." Hear from Uber designers & researchers, as well as special external guests on how designers use digital tools to solve physical human problems.
We'll cover lots of ground: the power of user research, design challenges in transportation projects, AI, the magic of prototyping, & designing for marketplaces.
Attendance is limited to invitees only. Please ensure you've received an acceptance email from Uber to confirm your participation.
