Design is changing, and so are the roles all of us play in the process. This means rethinking product building from the ground up—from shifting mindsets to bringing design and engineering closer together to make great work. Figma’s biggest product launch of the year kicks off Config, followed by an inside look at how Stripe builds products, and why good design is good business from Netflix's VP of Design.
Speakers:
Dylan Field –CEO, Figma
Kris Rasmussen –Chief Technology Officer, Figma
Figma was built to make design accessible to all so everyone can contribute to product development. This year we’re rethinking what that means - and how to open up Figma to more people in more ways. Config is always our biggest launch of the year - don’t miss it.

Design is not just a way to make sense of the world; design helps the world make sense. It takes fierce optimism to face challenges and see them as opportunities for learning, growth and change.
A DESIGN-LED COMPANY
Brian Chesky – Co-founder & CEO, Airbnb
in conversation with Dylan Field
We approach everything at Airbnb through a design lens. For us, design is not just about how things look but also how they work. We have redesigned almost every element of the guest, Host and employee experience over the last three years, and it has transformed our culture, our products, and our community. I’ll share how we did it, some of the difficult moments along the way, and how we kept design and creativity at the center of everything.

As an industry we’re in a transformative moment: how will AI shape our future and our work? That is exactly what we are tackling on the main stage with some of the most innovative thinkers on AI and product building.
How can AI make designers more effective? What are the challenges and opportunities building with AI for design? We’ll talk about the history of generating UI with AI, how AI can make designers more effective, challenges and opportunities in building with AI for design, and breaking down barriers between design and code roles. We’ll share a deep dive - and demos - into the Diagram product evolution and tackle the evolving role of the designer in this future.
Design systems
Day 1
ASL
For large organizations, internal marketing and onboarding strategies are essential to successfully introduce an enterprise design system. The Capital One Enterprise Design System team soft-launched with an interactive onboarding and education playground to demonstrate the system’s visual appeal, advanced tooling, and robust support model. Playfully titled as the design system “flight simulator”, the Figma-based training tool prepared designers to take flight. Join Jana in a discussion about how informative (and fun!) design system training can build your brand. She’ll share tips on simplifying complex design system concepts into digestible learning plans, and show examples of how she and her team brought training to life in a delightful way.
