UX Australia 2024 will include a rich and diverse program, encompassing all areas of design and UX practice.
We provide a space for experienced and emerging presenters to share their ideas and work. Talks are selected from a pool of submissions from those in the design community. We will be looking for proposals that match the focus and theme of the conference, or approach it in an innovative way.
In 2024, we're looking for presentations that focus on pushing design in new and interesting ways. Our team of reviewers will be looking for submissions that highlight the following:
How are you changing the makeup of your design team, and the relationship between the act of design and the people impacted?
Proposal topics should focus on how design is being pushed in new and interesting ways. The kinds of presentations we favour are experience-based and contain real-life stories and lessons. We want to know why you’re passionate about the topic and how you think your experiences will be meaningful to others.
The audience at UX Australia includes a mix of industries including Design, Education, Government, Software and Finance, and attendees job titles predominately include;
UX Designers
Product Designers
