K:D Envisions the Future of the Health Care Consumer Experience at FC/LA 2017

Karten Design recently had the pleasure of hosting and presenting an expert session as part of Fast Company’s FC/LA 2017 two-day conference.

K:D’s Stuart Karten, Ron Pierce, Eric Olson and Eunji Park presented how Karten Design is reimagining the future of the health care consumer experience. Attendees gained an understanding of current trends and discovered market changes that are shaping the future of health and medicine. The K:D team reflected on how researchers, strategists, designers, and mechanical engineers can help medical device companies address some of the medical device industry’s biggest challenges, such as improving usability and workflow, improving patient compliance, introducing new technology, and responding to market changes such as the consumerization of healthcare.
