Ron Ellefsen

Check out our UK networking event in Lodon on December 5th

Born in Norway, in 1974, trained as a graphic designer. BA in multimedia & HCI at Birmingham Institute of Art & Design in 1999. Set up Tape London Ltd. in 2005, and Tape Interactive in 2011 in Switzerland. I’m of an entrepreneurial mind set, running a networking organsation for young professionals; YoPro Global. I enjoy learning new cutting edge advances in design and technology. Amongst other innovative events, I’ve been involved in running TEDx Martigny and Mobi-camp in Switzerland. My philosophy is based on “guiding the client to where the user is at”.

I’m an award-winning multi-media designer, project manager and usability expert whose work focuses on the intersection of information architecture and immersive digital content. With experience in interface development, web, print, branding, and photography, I’m well-positioned to utilize my broad range of talents to create truly unique interactive experiences. After finishing my degree at Birmingham Institute of Art & Design, UCE, I briefly returned to Norway to work as a multimedia designer. After two years I returned to the UK. Over the last 12 years, I have focused my attention at the museum and heritage sector, creating solutions for some of the most prestigious organisations in the country. I moved to Zürich in 2010. I have an excellent understanding of design and usability for interactive media, creating solutions for a cross-section of clients all over the world.

I'm currently consulting for Roche in Basel, Switzerland amongst other projects.
