Customer Success Stories
Lasting change for a media giant
The Financial Times (FT) is one of the world’s best known and most respected news publications. The ‘pink paper’ has a good existing online offering with total circulation of over 750k readers, including 550k corporate memberships.
A new design increasing reader engagement by 30%
The Financial Times knew that online news was changing fast, and their subscription model meant they had to deliver something above and beyond the news and services available for free. The next generation of ft.com was already underway, and now they needed a partner who could help envisage it and bring it to life.
In the initial phase of our engagement, we redesigned and deployed a new home page in just seven weeks. This involved integrating React and GraphQL into the FT’s already cutting-edge tech stack. Demonstrating not only an improved approach to delivery but adding value through introducing new technology.
The Financial Times is at the cutting edge of product development, which puts a Lean UCD process at the heart of everything it does. We have been pivotal in implementing these processes, integrating Lean UX and Agile Design into all areas of product delivery across the organisation.
