About Jan Chipchase
Jan Chipchase is one of a team of researchers and anthropologists working at Nokia. Based within the design organization at Nokia, his job is to study people around the world — how they behave, communicate and interact with each other and the things around them.
He shares his observations and insights with Nokia designers, who often accompany him on field trips, helping them to create new ideas for how mobile devices will look, work and will be used in the future. Most of his time is spent in the field conducting research projects. This takes him out onto the streets, into people’s homes and public spaces to observe, document and analyze the rich tapestry of everyday life. Recent projects include visiting Uganda to look at shared phone use, several trips to India to look at how design can make mobile devices more accessible to people with low or non-existent levels of literacy, and a study in South Korea looking at how early adopters were reacting to the then recently launched mobile TV.
Jan has a Masters in User Interface Design, and a degree in Development Economics. He is based in Nokia’s Insight and Innovation Studio in Tokyo, his home since 2000. He has had three patents with a further 25 pending on topics that range from interaction methods, ubiquitously connected societies and seamless communication.
