Fjord's new website


We finally have launched the long waited Fjord site. This time we did a complete redesign. The team has done a great job in my subjective opinion. The site has a good list of case studies, explains methodology and should have regular updates on trends, events etc.

FICOD

A few weeks ago I was invited by Red.es to participate in FICOD, the leading forum for digital content in Spain. I was in a panel with Nokia, Google, Telefonica, BBVA and ZED. The topic, "New devices and new content" went around our core competence, user experience. It is clear that UX has become one of the main priorities and focus for most companies in this business. It is now finally understood that good UX helps to generate interest, traction and sales. Good UX with cool design is the key to differentiate and generate pull from the consumers.

There are not that many companies that offer good UX, there are almost none that have mobile as the core, and just Fjord has a good track record in the design of convergence experiences.
