Hi all! Please use this discussion thread to discuss Curious to meet people at Kozhikode over a cup of tea... to be held on June 4, 2023. Feel free to ask questions about the place, date and time, agenda of the meeting, or anything else.

Are you passionate about design and eager to connect with fellow designers at Kozhikode?

We are thrilled to announce that we are in the process of building a community of designers! Our goal is to create a collaborative space where designers can come together, share insights, and learn from one another. Together, we can foster a supportive and inspiring network that encourages creativity, growth, and professional development. We are excited to invite you to be part of shaping this community from the ground up. Your ideas, experiences, and expertise will help shape the direction of our community and create valuable opportunities for collaboration, learning, and personal growth.

To kickstart our journey, we will be hosting an inaugural event where you can meet other designers, exchange ideas, and contribute to the community's vision. Join us on June 4, 2023, between 3-5pm at [Somewhere around Calicut Main Beach - Final venue yet to be finalised] as we lay the foundation for an engaging and enriching community of designers at Kozhikode.

Thank you community for expressing your interest. We hope to have more than 15 people to join us tomorrow. In case, anyone would be part of this active group, please share your details here https://forms.gle/mH5cuVB6iGMf22b16
