Chapter events - Switzerland

This presentation is a joint event by the Swiss Chapter of the Service Design Network and HSLU MA Design programs. The lecture will be onsite at the MA Service Design atelier 314 and via Zoom for those who can't join onsite.

Why ends?

We create rich, emotional and meaningful experiences to on-board the consumer. In contrast, the off-boarding of the consumer experience is barren of emotion and meaning. This sacrifices consumer action, holds back engagement; limiting reflection and responsibility.


The off-boarding of the consumer is an untapped area of action in the consumer lifecycle. It can help businesses align with new business models, increase consumer engagement, raise customer satisfaction, broaden business influence, pre-empt legislation, and maximise sustainability. 


This lecture will focus on how AI is presented to the consumer and how its ending may come about.


If you're interested in making a difference with your product experience then look at the end.
