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.

Meet-Up Details

Hi IxDF Orlando, this is the REBOOT you’ve all been waiting for!

The first of monthly meetups where we can connect, network, explore and problem-solve together. For this first edition we will discuss AI in Research and Design.

It’s an exciting time in UX Research and Design! Artificial Intelligence tools are enabling vastly increased productivity. UX teams can deliver more with less effort and less time. AI also affords improved and customized UX for your users when strategically and carefully incorporated into products. The only thing that is constant is change and we are at the tip of change that AI will bring to product design and user experience.

At this meetup we will discuss how AI can be used in research and design right now and where it might go in the future. Bring your AI experiences, success or failure, to share and together we will grow!

Happy Meetup-Monday!

Our meetup location is Garlic Studio, 1626 Hillcrest Street, Orlando, FL. It is adjacent to East SR 50 about half-way between I4 and Orlando Executive Airport. There is street parking available on Hillcrest Street. It’s a quiet street so there should be plenty of space for everyone.

The studio is generously offered by group member Jessica Garlic. Be sure to thank her for letting us use her space tonight!

Have a great day and see you tonight!

Thank you for the great conversations last night at the meetup! I really enjoyed meeting everyone. It was a great reboot for IxDF Orlando.

Please use this thread to continue the conversation, add links that were not in the Slide Deck, or ask follow-up questions.

Keep an eye on the group announcements for the next meetup!

Meet-up attendees

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

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meet-up (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 meet-ups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
