Summary

Learn how Accenture’s GrowthOS accelerator partners with WEVO to simulate user responses at scale—cutting research time from weeks to minutes. In this session, Accenture will show how AI-powered testing of early concepts, Figma prototypes, and full journeys helps their clients identify friction, de-risk launches, and refine designs before development begins.

Key Insights

  • •
