What are Local Groups?
Local Groups will expand your career network—whether you are interested in learning new skills, finding job opportunities or looking for a new employee.
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 Calgary. I wanted to reach out and see if anyone is keen for a discussion about customer discovery and better value propositions through research. I would like to get up to 5 of us to grab a coffee and get your insights on the value of this type of research. Also it would be great to meet some UX design folks. I am planning it for March. Let me know if you are interested.

Meetup Conversation

Hi all! Please use this discussion thread to discuss Customer Discovery held on Mar 7, 2019. Feel free to ask questions about the place, date and time, agenda of the meeting, or anything else.

Hi James, Sounds like it could be interesting. Not sure I have any insights as it's not my background. My career has been in organizational communications & change management but I'm in transition and interested in UX research and service design. Tell me more about what you're trying to gather insights into.

Hey James and Michele and everyone else! Is there even a UX Design workplace in Calgary? I see lots in the USA and in Toronto but have yet to see anything in our neck of the woods. Have either of you found anything of the sort orrrrrr.... is it time for a bunch of us to start??? :)

Oh and I would love to attend the meeting but unable to due to the early start time. Sorry. Any chance of doing this as a breakfast / coffee meeting?? Maybe on the weekend??

Hi everyone! I am new to the interaction design foundation. I recently started a new job as a UX and product person at a tech start-up based in Toronto (working remotely), also on the founding team of another very early stage start-up. Been doing quite a bit of Customer Discovery with both of them so this meetup will be quite relevant. Also excited to connect with the community! See you next week!

Unfortunately, I had some client work pop up for Thursday afternoon so no longer can make it. Sorry about this!

Thanks for organizing this event! I'm looking forward to the meetup tomorrow!

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.
