April 3, 2024, h 16:00 · online

A live conversation between our founder Giulio Michelon and Sara Fazzini, design manager at Belka, on the value of design systems and ways to measure it.

What we'll talk about:

• What is the value of a design system
• Why is it difficult to measure it and what can you do
• Best practices and tips to find KPIs that matter to you
• Q&A: time for your questions!

What is this webinar series all about

Belka has been working alongside tech companies for 8 years. From this experience we have distilled a set of practices for achieving success.

Leading companies contact Belka to grow their innovative products. Startups, on the other hand, contact us after successfully validating the market and receiving funding to grow.

Both, however, have a common story: they have started to scale the business, the team has grown, interfaces are increasing.

At this stage, the question is always the same: How do I help my team grow the product effectively and quickly?

What will you learn

Giulio and Sara will share their views on why everyone agrees that a design system is crucial for every growing or seasoned digital product but it seems so hard to measure its impact.

We've been researching about it and found out different ways to tackle the problem. Long story short: there's no universal formula. Design systems are not a project that comes to an end, they are a working practice.

To measure how successful it is and where you can improve, impact has to be measured according to the principles driving your work process: the goals of you digital product.

This webinar is for you if you already have a design system in place but feel you are not making the most of out it and you need it to help you accelerate and experiment faster your young digital product or a more mature one.
