Meetup Conversation

Rajat Kumar Sen

Hi all! Please use this discussion thread to discuss IDF online meetup held on Jul 27, 2020.

This event will be held online because of the Covid-19. This meetup is for all to attend.

Topic: Challenges in the UX industry

There are plenty of topics in UX to start this first meetup.

In my opinion, let's start with an experiment to talk about the challenges that everyone faces in the UX industry. Then I will categorize them and discuss with everyone into upcoming meetups to find out how we can potentially solve the challenges.

We will be using Zoom platform for video-conferencing.

Time: Jul 27, 2020 06:00 PM America/Toronto

Thanks for setting up. I am excited.

Rajat Kumar Sen

Pleasure is all mine and I am excited as well. Will talk soon!!

Dercia Nhauche

That's good Rajat.

I have been looking for meetups with UX Researchers and Designers in Ottawa and I was already considering to organize one. I am so excited for this meetup.

Will there be a specific subject or we will be just sharing what we have been working on and our doubts?

Rajat Kumar Sen

Yes Dercia, there will be a specific subject that we will be covering and I am thinking to create a survey at the end of the meetup to improve next time.

Stefania

I am new to this field and I am transitioning from AI industry and it would be a pleasure to meet people working on UX and also from Ottawa - I recently moved here and I don't have friends! See you later!

Rajat Kumar Sen

Hi everyone, I would love to take some feedback from people who were not able to attend today's Meet-up?

- Less awareness?

- Time and date not right?

- Busy schedule?

- Topic?

If there are any other suggestions please let me know, so that we can improve and have meetups at a bigger scale :)

Amanda Montgomery

Hi Rajat...Hi everyone!

Just getting started at IxDF and was happy to discover a local group in Ottawa. As I am new to the UX/UI Design industry, I would love (and greatly appreciate) to hear any of your personal experiences in starting your UX/UI career - challenges, career opportunities, etc..

I was about a month too late, so I hope another meetup gets organized in the next few weeks as I would love to connect with some IxDF peers :)

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.
