Objective To define, design, and validate a new travel experience centered around conscious tourism. The aim was to gain deep behavioral insight into mindful travelers, co-create a value proposition aligned with their expectations, and launch a service offering that bridges cultural preservation and transformative journeys.

Process The partnership began by aligning closely with BBVA’s Quality team to identify service gaps through data and experience indicators. 

Together, we conducted collaborative workshops to surface opportunity areas, involving key internal stakeholders from across business and support areas. These sessions allowed us to prioritize initiatives for the research backlog and define clear roles internally. For some initiatives, we collaborated actively with BBVA’s internal UX team to ensure alignment in approach and implementation.
 Our research efforts were shaped by trend analysis and informed by behavioral patterns observed in BBVA’s existing customer base. We conducted qualitative research—ranging from in-depth interviews and triads to focus groups—as well as quantitative research, including structured surveys. This mixed-method approach allowed us to identify recurring pain points and behavioral patterns in how individuals and businesses interact with the bank, particularly in relation to branch service, investment support, digital onboarding, and account management.
 Once the insights were synthesized and prioritized, we facilitated ideation workshops with cross-functional teams to co-design value propositions. Each concept was grounded in real user needs while also meeting strategic business goals. We developed clear concepts and implementation recommendations for key areas of the bank, including SME banking, client retention, and service digitization.
 Across different initiatives, my role varied: in some cases, I guided our team through delivery; in others, I was directly responsible for driving the project end-to-end—from research to concept development. I also frequently led the design and facilitation of collaborative sessions to ensure alignment and momentum with BBVA’s internal stakeholders. Outcome Design Toolkits and Frameworks
