Design, UX and psychology: how to give birth to a project

The strategic collaboration between Studio Volpi and the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore continues through the EP projects - Professionalizing Experiences of the Work and Organizational Psychology Degree Course, coordinated by Professor Silvio Ripamonti at the Milan headquarter of the University.

Mymemo, this is the name of the device, is in fact a modular pill dispenser that facilitates and simplifies the life of those who need to take therapies with regular deadlines. Thanks to the cloud connection with a dedicated service, the device also provides care givers and doctors with information regarding the taking of medecines, reporting any patient's forgetfulness and therefore also acting as a virtual assistant.

Manuela Ferrante, Innovation Director of Studio Volpi, has directly followed the research project: "We always attach great importance to the multidisciplinary approach in the concept phases of a product, in this case psychology has provided new indicators that will be very useful to us. "

The EP Project - Professional Experience of the Università Cattolica has also been confirmed as being of great validity: "Expertise, strategic contribution and innovative vision are key points for Studio Volpi" continues Manuela Ferrante, "and these are qualities that we have found in the students who have done the research. They provided a great contribution to this specific UX and design project, this fact also confirms the validity of the selection of subjects by their university referents ".

The relationship between Studio Volpi and the university institutes is therefore consolidated further: if on the one hand the enhancement of talents continues in the purely technical areas related to the company, now new intervention scenarios have been opened where the participation of wider and different skills academic courses can foster a better approach to business for the company, but also and above all a formative passage of great value for students.
