First you should check out the session catalog and choose the ASUG track User Experience to find the sessions about UX topics:

SAP Portal 

I would like to recommend the ASUG SAP Portal roadmap session about recent innovations and planned enhancements for SAP Cloud Platform Portal (in the Cloud Foundry environment and on NEO) and SAP Enterprise Portal product strategy. For the time being I would like to encourage you to read also the recently updated SAP Cloud Platform Portal overview presentation and continue by reading the updated Portal roadmap presentation.

SAP Fiori Launchpad (and “central SAP Fiori Launchpad”)

Another topic we cover is SAP Fiori launchpad and the future directions by creating a single (“portal similiar”) point of entry for your business content and bringing together SAP S/4HANA, SAP Business Suite and SAP SuccessFactors with classic SAP UIs, unstructured content and 3rd party applications. This is a request that many customers are asking for and we are going to present you our plans and how we are going to cover the customers’ requirements. Regarding these topics consider to join the following sessions: 

• Evolving SAP Fiori Launchpad Toward a Full-Fledged Digital Workplace (ASUG Interactive Influence)
