Bringing technology closer to people: how UX is at the heart of the reflection
PARTNER: NFB
Whether it is to better identify its audience and its needs, to develop technological products centered on the human being, to facilitate the adoption of technology by reducing irritants or to improve the experience or to make everything more accessible and thus build loyalty among its target audience: user experience (UX) is a key component at the crossroads of Entertainment and AI. By putting people at the heart of the ideation process, the project’s development, and applications, this approach creates synergies that maximize the positive impact of innovations.
