With Jouko and Valto trotting the globe in India, I was joined by our chief experience officer Christoffer Langenskiold on our Podcast. We talked about usability, user experience, design and Chris’s own research on mobile user data and emotions. Make sure you give this episode a listen, to hear from one of the people hands-on involved in the design and development of the Grow VC platform.

Look Chris up on Grow VC

Here’s some quotes from the episode:

“visual design obviously sells a product, and sometimes it even makes people forgive a product even if usability is not where it should be”

“you can’t also focus on the whole gray mass..”

“Markus: ..is it possible to create uniform solutions that please everyone?
Chris: Well… Yes, it’s possible (laughs)”

Got ideas?

got_fundedWe are doing some important fun design stuff. We are trying to come up with good T-shirt design for grow vc. Initially we will be handing out these T-shirts to our first test users as gifts. Now we are just struggling with the “message” or slogan that we want to print on those.  We have had plenty of OK and not so OK ideas internally, but would love to hear your ideas as well :)

Here’s some of ours:

“Have a great idea – now what?”

“Idea -> growvc -> launch”

“A whole new ballgame for funding”

“Why dont u $tart something?”

“Have fun(ding)!”

To get your head around the subject, you can check out our “about us” page for ideas. Of course if someone comes up with the slogan we end up using, that person will get few T-shirts as well.
