    Hi Guys,

    I'm interested in a show of hands as to how many people in this group work around the hills area?

    How many work in the general vicinity of the CBD?

    The reason I ask is that a lunch time coffee catch up for someone working in the city is unworkable for me and I suspect others.

    I would have thought that many of the consultancies, organisations and design houses that employ those of us with the sort of skills sets that would join IDF would work in locations in or near the CBD.

    Please correct me if I am wrong.

    I guess that is a long winded way of saying I won't be coming despite my wish to meet many of you fine people.

    How do I go about getting the imprimatur to set up a session for others facing this dilemma.

    Rob

    Hi Rob, glad you asked. I'm living and working in Hills. I used to work in the city and have created a UX community there. Now it is hard to travel to the city for the meetups. What is the best way to catch up? Skype, zoom etc. or work from home if that is an opinion?

    Hi Rob,

    Thanks for raising this. I work in the city myself somewhere around Townhall station. Each time I want to join a meetup, It's either far from me to make it or the the timing is an issue.
    Since there's no tagging option available here I hope you see this sometime soon.
    This is my email in case you need it.
    sarajavanist@gmail.com

    Thanks,
    Sara

Questions? We've Got Answers

What is an IxDF Local Group and why should I join one?

An IxDF Local Group is a meeting point for people with a passion for design in your city.

You don't need to be a designer, just passionate about great design and how it can improve your work and career.

Meetups are the heartbeat of IxDF Local Groups, whether we meet at a café, a creative space or a local company. There's nothing quite like the magic of meeting face-to-face to share ideas and inspiration.

We also host regular IxDF Design Dinners, where we enjoy great food and help each other learn and grow. Even a simple coffee meetup in a café can ignite collaborations and friendships that last a lifetime.

You'll also have a private and exclusive online forum where you can openly get help and career advice.

Simply put, we learn together and smile together.

You'll expand your career network, discover new skills, explore job opportunities, meet potential clients, or even find your next dedicated team member when you join an xDF Local Group.

Remember: Your network is your net worth.

What goes on in an IxDF Local Group?

Your IxDF Local Group is led by an IxDF Local Leader and serves as a vibrant hub where you can network, learn and grow.

Here's what you can expect:

  • A community of professionals from all walks of life, who share a passion for great design and how it can benefit their career, their company, and society in general.

  • We have ongoing conversations about current design topics and local opportunities, which can help you stay ahead of industry developments and identify career opportunities.

  • And lastly, peer-led sessions focused on specific design challenges that will help you build expertise and sharpen your problem-solving skills.

In other words, we learn together and smile together. We lift each other up.

I'm not even a designer. Should I still join an IxDF Local Group?

Yes, absolutely!

IxDF Local Groups are for everyone, regardless of your professional background.

Design skills make you valuable. In any job and any industry. That's why our IxDF Local Groups are not just for professional designers. They're communities of professionals from all walks of life, who share a passion for great design and how it can benefit their career, their company, and society in general.
