What are Local Groups?

Meet-Up Discussion

Hi all! Please use this discussion thread to discuss Navigating your Design Career in Agencies & Startups held on Jul 26, 2023. Feel free to ask questions about the place, date and time, agenda of the meeting, or anything else.

Hi Daylon. If I may pick your brain a little, what are your consideration between UX work in the agencies vs in-house? What would you suggest for a newbie to start with. Thank you.

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.
