Meetup Details

Salut Montreal! Let's meet up and network over coffee!
It would be fun to meet up and discuss this online course (experience, content, etc.), UX/UI and anything related :)

*** Btw, we don’t have a reservation for Sunday. Unfortunately, Anticafe isn’t available. Not sure if any of you are planing on showing up tomorrow..

Meetup Conversation

anne sophie Asselin

I'm in! Let's find a place where there would be enough room for everybody and where we can discuss :D I really like working at the Crew Collective. It's an old bank in Montreal that they renovated into a café. We could reserve a space all together! --> https://crewcollectivecafe.com/en

Valérie Aubin

Me too I'm in. Anne Sophie I love your suggestion !!

Leanne Avery

Hey, I'm new to IDF & UX design and would love to meet up with all of you! Crew Collective looks awesome :) I'm flexible that day so can work around your schedules!

Marie-Lyne Doucet

I will try to join you if I can match the event with something else (it's a 2 hours drive for me) :)

Bianca Su

is there a time / day of the week that suits you better?

Bianca Su

Sweet! I thought about Crew Café, but it's pricey (~35/hr) and it has to have the flexibility to hold more people.. That's why I went with Anticafé as the first suggestion

As for the date, we can do closer too! Would weekday evenings (afterwork 6pm) suit people more or weekends?

Denise Sarmento

I would look forward to it!

Anticafe sounds like a good spot and weekend is definetly easier/more flexible for me.

Bianca Su

Hi Denise, juste letting you know I set a new location, L'Escalier for Saturday:)

Piero Lopane

Bonjour/Hello everyone :)

Bianca Su

Salut Piero, just letting you know I set a new location, L'Escalier for Saturday 😊

Joanna Katsifaraki

Hello Everyone, looking forward to our meeting :) Is it possible to have it late afternoon around 4-5pm?

anne sophie Asselin

Hi everyone! Anti café is a good idea! Personally I would prefer a week night and any of them works for me except Wednesday night. If you all think it’s easier on a weekend day, then it’s alright too :

Joanna Katsifaraki

Hi everyone, I also prefer a weeknight if it's not possible, I'm available Sunday evenings. Please let me know what works. Thanks :)

Leanne Avery

I also prefer weeknights as I'm usually gone on weekends! I'm an hour drive outside the city. Are we still talking Oct 20th for the date or is that still up in the air? Thanks :)

anne sophie Asselin

Hi everyone!! Since it looked a bit difficult to find a date that fits everyone, I made a Doodle Survey. It will be easier to, see at a glance, everyone's availability. Please use that link and click on the dates you would like to meet up. https://doodle.com/poll/z8ycxu4564242nqv

Bianca Su

That's great thanks for the doodle! I dont know why but IDF doesnt seem to be great with notification haha, I've changed the event to Saturday the 19th a few weeks ago though! I can't on Sunday.

I doubt most people will see the doodle though (because of the notification settings..) :/

anne sophie Asselin

I actually just saw you comment lol ! But I did get an email confirming the meetup at the escalier on Saturday. I'm wondering now if it's worth it organizing a second meetup the next day at anticafe? I will personally only go to one...

Gemma Trigueros

Hi there! I am in too, for me it suits almost all the options you gave! Is it on Saturday the 19th October Finally? Can’t wait to meet you

Bianca Su

Hey Gemma! Just letting you know I set a new location, L'Escalier for Saturday 😊

anne sophie Asselin

It looks, from our survey, that most people would prefer Sunday, October 20th between 6:00PM to 8:00PM. So I think we will keep this date as our official date. Should I reserve for 7 at the Anticafe?

Bianca Su

I think what would end up happening is that we'll do 2 days of meet up. The doodle is great but it's not fair for the rest of 26 people who didnt see the survey, I'll update the description soon.

Joanna Katsifaraki

Sunday, October 20th at 7pm works for me, looking forward to meeting all of you!

anne sophie Asselin

I will reserve for 6:00PM but you can join us for 7:00PM :)

Joanna Katsifaraki

I'm driving in from out of town, but I'll try to be there for 6pm, Thanks :)

Leanne Avery

Perfect! See ya then :)

Joanna Katsifaraki

Hi everyone,

Can someone please confirm the address for the Anticafe, thanks!

Greg Mate

Hi I will attend but it can only make it around 3PM.

Can you lease update me on the 19th if you’re ending early?

Bianca Su

Hi Greg! that should be fine! Since I set the time from 2-6 pm!
Just also letting you know I set a new location, L'Escalier for Saturday 😊

Adrien Picard

Hi guys! Can I join you at the Anticafé?

Bianca Su

Hey Adrien, so I set a new location for Saturday (2-6pm) at L'Escalier!
But there seems to be a few people who are going to Anticafe on Sunday at 6pm if that suits you better!

anne sophie Asselin

Hi guys! I tried to call the Anticafé on Notre-Dame to reserve for next Sunday (for those who couldn’t on Saturday) but they won’t answer!! I literally called 15 times... should I reserve to the Anticafé on St-Catherine I stead?

Leanne Avery

It doesn't matter which location to me. Did you have luck in reaching either one since you posted yesterday?

anne sophie Asselin

Hi! I didn't but if you want to give it a try you are more than welcome! You have more chance reaching the one from St-Catherine I think... let me know !

Constantine Kanellos

Going to try to make it!
Have a good week end everyone!!

Nicolas Leclair

J'aurai beaucoup aimé participer à cette rencontre mais je suis inscrit à un autre événement, le Coopérathon19. Assurément que je participerai à un prochain. Bonne rencontre.

Adrien Picard

See you tomorrow!

Angel Montiel

Sorry, I have a contract today and I wont be able to attend. In case I finish early maybe I can join you later.

Angel Montiel

Could you please confirm what was the final venue to meet and the hour? Thanks!

Bianca Su

Hi it should be escalier at 2pm !:)

anne sophie Asselin

EVERYBODY! WE DON'T HAVE A RESERVATION FOR SUNDAY. Unfortunately, Anticafe never answered :( I ended up coming to the meetup on Saturday so I don't think I will be coming tomorrow so please ensure you have a reservation somewhere. Very sorry about that and good luck :)

Yoojin Choi

Althogh I couldn’t be there for a long time, It was very nice and encouraging to participate on today’s meetup! Thanks a lot to those who initiated today’s event! I’d love to see you guys again soon! :)

Leanne Avery

Sorry! I was away in a no service zone. Unfortunately, something came up and I won’t be able to make it tonight, it it sounds like it’s not happening tonight anyways!!! Hope yesterday’s meet up was great :)

Joanna Katsifaraki

Sorry to hear that it's not working out for tonight, hopefully I will be able to make it to the next one, Have a great week everyone! :)

Barbara

Hi everyone, I'm new here and I'm very interested to join you for a meet up. Anyone knows if a meet is planned soon ?
Thanks :)

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.
