Who am I?
My name is Panagiotis (Panos) Vergopoulos and I’m a Senior UX/Product Design/Design Systems manager & UX Lead, multidisciplinary designer, product design coach and Chef (yes!). I am passionate about design, passing on acquired knowledge, cooking and all things BBQ.
I was born in Athens, Greece. I have lived and worked in 3 different countries, with people from -approximately- 53 different nationalities.
I’m a Deree College (BA) and the University of Stirling (MPhil.) grad and go by both mottoes: Non Ministrari Sed Ministrare & Innovation and Excellence.
What I do
I build and scale teams that build products, that users love!
I tackle challenges, uncover insights, and guide users in navigating digital products. My goal is to design intuitive, functional, and aesthetically pleasing digital experiences that users genuinely enjoy.
Beyond design, I lead teams, drive product evolution, shape strategy, and lead research. I help organizations establish efficient processes and workflows that support innovation and streamline product development.
I also mentor colleagues and fellow product designers, develop career growth frameworks, and focus on fostering a strong culture within design teams and organizations.
I began my career in web design in 1998, and since then, I’ve worked across various sectors, including publishing, advertising, tech/travel startups, and established corporations/brands, managing projects from diverse areas of the creative industry.
I’ve held roles such as Senior Manager for UX/Product Design, UX Lead, and Creative Director with agencies, collaborated with startups like insurancemarket.gr, and operated as a freelancer through my agency, Design Kinks, offering a wide range of UX, UI, and creative services.
Since 2013, I’ve focused on the online travel industry, working with companies such as airfasttickets.com, tajawal.com, and almosafer.com (Seera Group).
