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

They are all around us, but how often do we really think about how much better our lives are because of well-designed physical products?

Come with a product you can hold in your hands and tell us why you love it, and what decisions or features were made to make it amazing and just for you!

We will also do a quick exercise to begin exploring what you want this group to be so that it feels like it was designed just for you!

Looking forward to chatting with everyone!

P.S.: In contrast to coffee meetups this is more of a show-up for the start time, otherwise you might miss out.

Howdy all,

Looking forward to seeing you tonight at 6 pm PST!

Don’t forget to find that physical product that makes your life better because it exists, and feels like it was made just for you. It could be anything including a chair, a packaged product, or your favourite towel, you get the idea.

I am excited to see you all and have an amazing day!

P.S.: Try to avoid choosing your smartphone to think outside the box.

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.
