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

When was the last time you went on a trip? you probably used an online service or application to explore, arrange your travel plan and make reservations. OTAs (Online Travel Agencies) thrive from giving the best user experience, taking out the complexity and making it as easy as a swipe and a click to book online and share the experience with family and friends, linking all the elements of travel and tourism and delivering them into a single brand.

The travel industry is an extremely competitive multi-million business and has low barriers for entry, where a business success depends in a great extent on how well they deliver a great user experience. In this context, what is the role of UX in a company such as e-Dreams ODIGEO?

Thomas Scheijbeler, UX designer at e-Dreams ODIGEO, will tell us about the traveller's customer journey, the different touch points, the importance of the UX department for the company's competitive strategy and how e-Dreams ODIGEO succeeds at giving its users a delightful travel experience from start to finish.

Come join us and learn how they work and design user experience in one of the most relevant companies in the travel industry.

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.
