In this episode of the Better Future Spotlight, our CEO and Founder Mark Bergin catches up with Celso Borges, the Experience Design Director at Concentrix Tigerspike. The conversation traverses topics of inclusive design, trust, safety, trauma-informed design, igniting imaginations, and problem-solving and seeking in the broader context of a better future. Celso is a shining example of what excellent, contemporary design can be and it is a delight to have him share his experiences and thoughts with us.
