Design
Today's products and services often fail because they do not meet real user needs or exclude parts of the target group. There are many challenges: design choices that unintentionally exclude users, solutions that do not support sustainable behaviours, interfaces that overload cognition, and products that are launched without being tested with actual users. This can lead to high development costs, failed launches and lost competitiveness.
RISE helps you create products and services that work for more people through user-centred design and evidence-based evaluation. We test and analyse usability, review accessibility against legal requirements, develop interactive prototypes and XR solutions, and design for sustainable behaviours. We train your teams in UX methodology and design processes, and facilitate transformative workshops that challenge preconceptions and create new solutions.
