Cineplex Rewind, Fast Forward: Sprinting from Concepts to Actionable Results
A year ago the Cineplex Store built a client-side UXD team aiming at increasing value for Cineplex guests by a test and learn approach. Since then, there has been a big shift in how business stakeholders collaborate with designers and developers. Furthermore incorporating iteration and continuous feedback to make more effective decisions in a quick manner.
We’ll walk you through a case study of our new digital products developed in our weekly design sprint rituals, including design jams, rapid testing and design circles. This approach is focused on aligning the team through constant collaboration to reach clearly defined goals and gain key learnings rapidly through early user validation.
Join us to hear some insights and war stories about design and user research mixed methodologies. We hope you’ll learn a bit more about Cineplex beyond the movie theatres and share your thoughts too.
