A Local Group is a group of people who, like you, are passionate about design. Local Groups organize meetings to get inspired, have fun and learn from one another.

Meetup Details

Hi IxDF New York City, let’s meet up and network over coffee! Share UX design insights and resources, discuss UX problems you are facing now, or just chat about anything else. It’s going to be an informal, cozy meetup with fellow designers!

Meetup Conversation

Jee Kim

Hello everyone,

I apologize for the notice, but my preexisting medical condition has flared up so I will not be able to make it. I am so sorry. I am going to ask Mads to cancel this event.

Leke Abaniwonda

Hi Jee, I hope you’re well. Thanks for setting this up. Am I able to join virtually?

Jee Kim

Hi Leke, of course. Thank you, I’m well. I am not sure how we could accommodate a virtual gathering as this will be my first time hosting. Anybody else got an idea?

Jee Kim

Hi everyone! My name is Jee, and I am new to UX/UI. I’m currently working as an art teacher, and my goal is to build an app for artists and other creatives.

I picked the Bean as our meetup spot because they have a really good chai. I live in Inwood, so I sometimes travel an hour downtown just to get the chai. They have a great selection of other beverages as well, so you won’t be disappointed!

I learned so much within just a week through here, so I wanted to see how everyone is doing in their UX journey.

Leke Abaniwonda

I love the receptiveness of your response. Thank you. I’m happy to join in via your mobile phone camera. At the least an audio (just listening in and contributing) would suffice. Whatever is decided is fine.

Could you just let me know the final statement about it please.

Jee Kim

Sure, no problem! It might be best to use Google Meet since Zoom logs people out after 30 min.

Leke Abaniwonda

Then Google Meet it is. Would you set up a time ahead of our meeting? Or should I wait till then.

Leke Abaniwonda

Thanks a lot Jee Kim. I look forward to meeting virtually.

Jee Kim

See you in a few weeks!

Leke Abaniwonda

Excited

Jee Kim

I’ll make sure to fully charge my battery.

Erik Sanner

Meetup attendees

Members can show their interest to attend a meetup by clicking “Attend this meetup” button. In addition, since Local Groups events are open to all, non-members can also attend these meetups.

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meetup (and you’re welcome to do the same), but their non-member friends will not be shown as “attending” because this feature is only available to members.

P.S.: Note that the number of attendees is not an indication of its value! Small meetups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
