In 2012, as in previous years, Centigrade sponsors “German UPA”, the German association of usability and user experience professionals. In doing so, Centigrade supports the goals of the association, such as promoting public awareness for topics like user-friendliness of interactive systems.

Thomas Immich, CEO Centigrade: “Public awareness and interest in the topic of ‘usability’ have increased over the last years, which we can clearly see in our daily work. Since we think that this is a beneficial trend for suppliers as well as users of interactive systems, we continue our support for the professional association.”

Besides supporting German UPA as a sponsor, Centigrade contributes to communication in the fields of usability and user experience by, e.g., participating in conferences and trade fairs as well as regularly publishing articles on diverse UX aspects in the company blog.
