UX Design Podcast: Why can’t companies ignore the topic of UX Maturity?

We often observe in the market that some companies excel at providing seamless and, above all, excellent user experiences, while others, despite promising products or services, significantly lag behind user expectations. It is clear that in the fast-paced business world, it is inevitable for companies to focus on delivering the optimal user experience. This raises questions about how to define a company’s maturity in the field of user experience and why this is a critical factor for business success. It all revolves around a company’s UX Maturity. What exactly does this term mean? And how can companies enhance their UX Maturity to stay competitive in a fiercely contested market?

Whether a company dares to develop together with end users says a lot about the maturity level of user experience in an organization.
