Meet our panelists:
👏🏼 Denise Majard - Denise is a UX researcher at Dext, where she helps product teams make better decisions by turning user understanding into strategic clarity. She works across B2B SaaS with accountants, bookkeepers, and the SMBs they serve - specialising in cutting through complexity to insights that actually get acted on.
She's currently building AI-augmented research practices and exploring what it means to move from research into product strategy. Tonight she's sharing her perspective on finding your voice when you're navigating that in-between space - and working out where you can have the most impact.
👏🏼 Pam Moscarda - Pam began her design journey studying interaction design in Venice, and specialized as ux designer for e-commerce experiences in Italy. She moved to London, freelanced, and consulted before joining Tesco in 2016. Now, she leads design and research for Tesco Retail Media, excelling in cross-functional workshops and strategic projects.
Her leadership style is empathetic and people-centered, prioritising psychological safety and using UX/design methodologies to address team, business, and process challenges. Pam is passionate about bringing people together to achieve strategic goals with design thinking at their core.
👏🏼 Veda Adnani - Veda is a design leader with over a decade of experience across emerging tech, digital health, and high-growth consumer brands. Currently Lead Product Designer at Moonpig, she brings a rare blend of product management, UX design, and commercial thinking to every stage of product development.
