We’re already in a world where smartphones outnumber all the desktops and laptops put together. Wearables – smart watches and devices – now act as remote controls for notifications on our phones.
A sizeable portion of your existing user base could be accessing your website only through a handheld device. While it is quite likely that future web users will never experience your site on a large screen, we also have instances where users prefer to respond to notifications on their desktop. Desktop apps are not going away either.
Meta Refresh 2016 will focus on enhancing web experience on mobile, wearables and the desktop
You must be a practising web developer or designer, and must be able to show how your own work has advanced the state of the web in the past year. You are expected to present original work that your peers — this event’s audience — recognise as being notable enough to deserve a stage. If you are excited about someone’s work and believe it deserves wider recognition, we recommend you contact them and ask them to submit a proposal.
Every proposal MUST be accompanied by:
Without the above information, your proposal will not be considered for review.
If you are submitting a Workshop Proposal, you must clearly state:
There is only one speaker per session. Workshops can have more two or more instructors.
Entry is free for confirmed speakers.
If you are an outstation speaker, HasGeek will do its best to provide a grant that covers part of your travel and accommodation expenses in Bangalore, subject to budgetary constraints. Grants are made available only to speakers delivering full sessions (40 minutes or longer) and workshops.
HasGeek believes in open source as the binding force of our community. If you are describing a codebase for developers to work with, we’d like it to be available under a permissive open source licence. If your software is commercially licensed or available under a combination of commercial and restrictive open source licences (such as the various forms of the GPL), please consider picking up a sponsorship. We recognise that there are valid reasons for commercial licensing, but ask that you support us in return for giving you an audience. Your session will be marked on the schedule as a sponsored session.
The 2016 edition is a single-day, single-track conference on 17 September. We invite proposals for:
Deadline for submitting proposals: 29 August 2015
Conference date: 17 September
Meta Refresh will be held at the MLR Convention Centre, J P Nagar, Bangalore.

The system is broken. Patients face long wait-times, lack of available practitioners and high out-of-pocket costs. Doctors face overflowing waiting rooms, shorter examination times and inconsiderate software. Healthcare sounds ripe for redesign. But discussing even the smallest change quickly exposes vast underlying systems and processes that somehow function to keep us alive and well. As designers, confronting this complexity can be paralyzing.
While it’s important to understand all the complexities of a system before designing it, we need to pick and choose from our design toolkit to cut through the noise. In this talk, I will discuss some challenges faced designing tools and services for Doctors. Along with some of the topics mentioned below, I will also cite examples from our work in the field.
I’m Jonathan D’Mello. I’m currently Lead Product Designer at Practo. I’ve spent the last 3 years designing products for doctors and clinics.
