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 Portland, let’s meet online and discuss UX! In our video call, let’s get to know each other and share UX problems we’re facing and discuss how we can solve them. Save the date, grab your laptop (or phone!), and let’s see each other online!

Meetup Conversation

Autumn

Hello - For this meet up I plan to do a get to know each other style discussion.

Potential Topics of Discussion:

  • How you got into design / where you’re located

  • What courses you’re interested in on interaction design foundation

  • Something you’re looking forward to this year

  • Connect with accountability partners (see below)

Amount of topics we discuss will depend on the turn out!

An idea that I have for this is to use this time to connect with potential accountability partners. I love the idea of these courses but I have a habit of starting many and finishing few.

I’d love to partner with some local people and set up times to discuss what we’re learning. Like a bookclub but for interaction design courses! Let me know your thoughts :)

Excited to meet you all! I’m working on a career transition and have been looking to connect with the local design community. The course bookclub sounds great. Thanks for setting it up, Autumn!

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.
