All of this has been done with one mission in mind - to humanize the financial industry. It’s not easy to add soul to a financial product, but it’s extremely important to build an emotional connection between purpose-driven financial brands and digital customers. And the only way to do this is to emphasize a human-centered approach in everything we do. This is what we have learned and try to perform better than anyone else on this planet.

We Couldn't Ask for a Better Team

As part of the UXDA tradition, we also congratulated our colleagues with the UXDA Breakthrough Award 2021, a special award for achieving outstanding accomplishments in the name of our company.

UX Design Agency With a Personal Anthem

The final surprise of the evening for everyone was the UXDA anthem, a personal long-time dream and idea of our Co-founder Linda Zaikovska Daukste, which was realized by the help of our colleague Liene Stūrmane and performed right on our birthday! Soon it will be available to listen to on all platforms, but for now, you can hear it while enjoying our event in retrospect:
