Nurturing the Victor Chang legacy

A heartfelt project

In the world of heart research, few names resonate as profoundly as Dr. Victor Chang. At Newism, we're honoured to play a role in supporting the digital presence of the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute, a beacon of hope and innovation in the fight against heart disease.

Taking over the helm in 2018, our mission was clear: enhance, streamline, and optimize. The site we inherited was a patchwork of intentions, but beneath it all, there was a story worth telling - a legacy worth amplifying. Our focus wasn’t on a design overhaul but on ensuring that the institute’s digital heartbeat was as strong and effective as its research.

Enhancements & Usability

Step by step, we introduced design tweaks and usability enhancements to make the website not just a source of information, but a portal for engagement and inspiration. It’s about making every visitor's journey, from potential donors to researchers, intuitive and meaningful.

Functional Improvements

Behind the scenes, we’ve been the silent guardians of functionality. From optimising donation pathways to integrating impactful storytelling features, we’ve worked to ensure the website is a robust tool for the institute’s noble mission.

Technical Optimisation

Correcting inherited development practices was a mission in itself. We’ve reimagined the site’s technical foundations while maintaining the essence of its purpose.

Ongoing Support

For over six years, our commitment has gone beyond mere maintenance. It’s been about anticipating needs, adapting to the digital landscape, and ensuring the institute’s message beats loud and clear across the web.

The Outcome

Today, the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute’s website stands not just as a testament to a legendary heart surgeon but as a beacon of progress in cardiac research. Our role in supporting this cause, albeit behind the scenes, is a source of pride for Newism. We showcase this not to highlight our design prowess, but our dedication to continuous improvement, support, and the profound impact of collaborative success in the not-for-profit sector.
