Why is nobody using my design system? Let’s talk about adoption

March 19, 2024, h 16:00 · online

A live conversation between our Founder Giulio Michelon and Maria Sole Biondi, Product Designer at Belka, on how to make sure your design system is used by the whole team.

What we'll talk about:

• How a design system works really works
• Symptoms of lack of adoption
• What successful Design System adoption looks like
• Q&A: your questions!

Growth, growth. But how do we do it?

Leading companies contact Belka to grow their innovative products. Startups, on the other hand, contact Belka 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?

We've seen our fair share

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

Giulio and Maria Sole will tell us how we often think of a design system as just an artefact: a Figma file with lots of well-developed components. But this is not a design system, it is just a file on your computer!

A design system is a set of practices built around that artefact. It is a way of working, and people are the center of those practices.

We will guide you to discover the symptoms of poor or failed team adoption and we will reveal the secrets that the best product teams use for successful adoption, sharing best practices from our independent research.

For those who want to grow their product

This webinar is for you if you work in a tech company with a mature digital product in need of a boost or a young product that is scaling.

You already have a design system but feel you haven't yet achieved the success you were looking for. You feel you need to accelerate and experiment faster; to do so, you seek support for your design and development teams to iterate more and faster through the magic of design systems.
