AttendeesUX LIVE is targeted toward the mid-senior design practioner market & design leaders; exploring everything from Research & Design, AI & VR, through to Digital Transformation, Leadership and much more!

With the ability for each attendee to navigate the multiple stages and panels at their leisure, there will be plenty of dwell time and passers by throughout the day – not only at lunch or during breaks! This year has an entire stage dedicated to Leadership, and we expect much more high-level networking opportunities as a result.

Practitioners travelled in from America to India and across the UK & Europe in 2018, spurring us on to deliver an event that is bigger than ever in 2019! We get an average of 65% UK based attendees and 35% international attendees at our conferences.

About Us


See what some of our previous sponsors have had to say about their experiences at UX LIVE.

“Here, we’ve got everyone [in UX] in one room – so it’s amazing to be here at the ultimate event for UX. They seemed to be able to get people from different companies, different backgrounds and put them in one room together and help that cross polination” - Lily Christensen, Head of International Development, Usabilla.

“I really enjoyed the event finding it relevant and an interesting mix of UX folk and speakers. A good opportunity to learn and to network.”- Abi Reynolds, Principal Consultant, User Vision.

“I felt UX LIVE had a great vibe and a good mix of practical hands-on activities (such as workshops) and inspiring speakers. As a workshop facilitator and a panelist, I thoroughly enjoyed it, and would definitely recommend it to my team” - Aleksandra Melnikova, Head of UX, Poke.

“It was great to hear from and to speak with individuals who have been part of the UX community for years as well as those who are just starting out” - Vincent Hudson, Executive Director, Service Design, Hiveworks Ltd.

Testimonials


Enem Rita Usanga Founder, This is Nuance

The ability to actually access individuals that are working at big brands and agencies is absolutely crucial. If you’re trying to get in front of those people, this is the event you need to sponsor.


UX Live brought us tremendous value as a sponsor. With the executive package we had a great opportunity to get TestingTime in front of an eclectic crowd of UX professionals. The mix of our on-site booth, content collaboration and social media promotion with UX Live really put us on the map in London. We’ll be back :-)
