"Systems thinking and DesignOps in Software Product Design"

Από τη θεωρία στην πράξη. To Figma ως πλατφόρμα για την ανάπτυξη ταχέων και βιώσιμων σχεδιαστικών λύσεων ακολουθώντας μια ολιστική προσέγγιση κατά την επίλυση προβλημάτων. Κατανοώντας την πολυπλοκότητα και την επιρροή του σχεδιασμού για τη διαρκή ανάπτυξη μιας software start-up.
-

From theory to practice. Embracing uncertainty through abductive reasoning, producing knowledge and iterating in a continuous flow within a holistic approach to problem-solving. Comprehending complexity and sustaining growth in the context of designing in a software start-up. Figma as a platform to enable rapid, robust and sustainable designs for scale.

•Alexandros Marios Oikonomopoulos -
Lead of Digital Product Design at Glispa, A Market Group Company

"Definition of Done (DoD) in Digital Product Design, is it a Thing?"

Πότε και πώς καθορίζουμε το < τέλος > στη διαδικασία σχεδιασμού; Τα Design Systems, έχουν επανέλθει στο προσκήνιο, βοηθώντας τους Designers να οργανώσουν το "χάος" κατά την κατασκευή ψηφιακών προϊόντων. Ωστόσο, τι συμβαίνει στα Design Systems όσο τα προϊόντα εξελίσσονται με την πάροδο του χρόνου; Με πυρήνα το Figma, θα εξερευνήσουμε την ύπαρξη και ισχύ του DoD στο Digital Product Design.
-
There is a common discussion over “when” and “how” we define the end of a design, or in other words the definition of done (DoD), in digital product design. Design systems have returned to help designers organize and set the context of digital products but as they are “living organisms” that are evolving so their design systems too. During this presentation, we will go from high level to low level and high level again. With the help of Figma, we will go over a proof of concept and discuss if DoD in digital product design is it a thing.

Στο τέλος κάθε παρουσίασης, οι ομιλητές θα έχουν από 5 έως 10' να απαντήσουν σε ερωτήσεις του κοινού.

Why Join

Meet people who love design as much as you do. Together we learn new skills, grow our networks, and discover new job opportunities.

Questions? We've Got Answers

An IxDF Local Group connects you with people in your city who are building and applying design skills in their work. Together, you'll strengthen your craft, expand your network, and put theory into practice.

IxDF Local Groups meet regularly in person at cafés, company offices, or creative spaces to share ideas, give feedback, run workshops, and learn from each other. Many groups also organize IxDF Design Dinners, where the conversation goes deeper over a meal. These aren't just social events. Members find collaborators, clients, job leads, and future teammates through them.

You'll also have access to a private online forum where you can get career advice, honest feedback, and support from people who understand the work.

You don't need to have a "designer" title to join. If you care about how design shapes products, careers, and organizations, you belong here.

Join and you'll discover new skills, explore job opportunities, and build relationships with people who understand the power of great design.

Your IxDF Local Leader organizes meetups based on what members want most. As an IxDF member, you can also plan and create your own meetups. Sessions range from hands-on and structured to relaxed and informal.

Some examples of what you'll find:

Presentations from local designers, followed by Q&A
Lightning talks where members share lessons learned from real projects
Workshops where you work through a real design challenge together
Portfolio reviews where you get honest, practical feedback
Coffee meetups and design dinners with open conversations about where the industry is heading

Any member can propose, organize and post a meetup. You don't have to wait for your Local Leader to take the initiative.

What stays consistent is the people. You'll find designers and professionals who ask good questions, share what they know, and show up for each other between meetups too.

Yes, absolutely!

Design skills make you more effective in any role. Product managers, developers, marketers, researchers, and founders all work better when they understand how to think like a designer.

IxDF Local Groups reflect that. Members come from all kinds of professional backgrounds, not just design. What they share is an interest in how design shapes products, decisions, and careers.

You'll fit right in regardless of your background.
