Add to your calendar:

Hi IxDF Lisbon,

my name is Joana and I'm new at IxDF. I am really happy to be able to enroll in this course and I would like to organize this meet up to network over coffee our tea!

I want to change my area of expertise to UX designer but I have Sciences background. I am think maybe there are more people like me in this situation ! Understanding if anyone pass through this challenge and how they have done it it's the key to success.

Who's with me? :D

Cheers, Joana Lapa

    Hey y'all and Joana :-)

    Glad that you decided to take the step in organising this meetup. I have a Energy Engineering background, but like many others, got infected by the entrepreneurship bug and realised that my skill set needed a new injection of skills. Design Thinking, UX/UI, Service Design became my biggest interests in areas around sustainability.

    Unfortunately I won't be able to join this one, but I am definitely looking forward to a future meetup!

    @Inês - great to hear, that you made a successful transition!! I am doing the same and am currently attending the product management path. I used to be a program and change manager but I got infected by Design Thinking and Business Model Generation ten years ago and when I discovered about interaction design and lean UX I knew this was it. Your success inspires me and hopefully more in this group. I still don't know if I can attend - have a job interview pending. If I can't make it I wish you all a beautiful afternoon and a happy holiday season.

    Kind regards from Algarve,

    Ghania

    Hey Joana. I get you 100%. I was exactly in the same situation a few months ago.

    My background is computer science but my passion has driven to human computer interaction and ux.

    I am now a Product designer in a software company and I love it.

    I can not attend the meeting but feel free in contacting me through Facebook (Inês Urbano) or Instagram (@mturb).

    I am sure we can talk about something that might help you.

    Kiss :)

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.

No matter what your job currently is, you'll find a supportive community to connect and grow with.

Each meetup is a chance to grow, learn, and connect with passionate professionals like yourself. Even small gatherings create big opportunities for personal and professional growth.

We're a community with heart and soul, so you never have to face the job market alone. At IxDF, we lift each other up, learn together, and spark friendships that grow your career.
