Success By Design

The MX East conference will blaze a trail this October 21 - 23 into the new frontier of innovation and design management. MX East takes a strategic look at the business value of design, and how design drives success in product development and the service industries. The loyalty and trust of today’s consumer is best earned when they remember their experience with a product or service as not only positive but potentially life-changing or empowering; the businesses that respond to this consumer demand are the ones that will succeed.

Ideally suited for design, product, and creative managers, MX East bridges the gap between conferences that address the big vision of design and strategy, and conferences that focus on form-making and methods.

This year’s speakers include thought leaders from a variety of sectors who are using the influence of smart design to win customers and deliver exceptional user experiences, whether through print media, retail stores, consumer products or customer service.
