1. Design at the speed ‘Vibe’: Crafting "More than human" products with AI
   
   Speakers:
   - Kevin Mcdonagh, Director of Product, Velocity
   - Rachel Long-Smith, Lead Product Designer, Velocity
   
   In this 30-minute session, an AI Product Designer and a Product Manager will explain how AI is being used in design. We'll show you quick ways to prototype and validate products using Figma and tools like Figma Make, Lovable and Replit. We'll also explain why user testing and design practices are important.
   
   Designers will learn how to use AI and get access to demo assets.

2. Tabby Prototyping with Figma + Cursor: AI powered Workflow That Wins Stakeholders and Validates Ideas Faster
   
   Speaker:
   - Aigul Agisheva, Senior Product Designer, Tabby
   
   In this talk, I’ll share how we use Cursor to turn Figma designs into working prototypes and how that shift has changed the way we collaborate with stakeholders, validate with users, and hand off to developers.
   
   I'll walk through-
   - How AI-powered tools like Cursor empower designers to prototype real, usable interfaces without engineers
   - Why rapid prototyping leads to immediate stakeholder buy-in
   - Real examples of how we tested ideas directly with users and iterated fast
   - How this workflow improves development handoff
   - What this means for the future role of designers in product teams
