    Hi guys! I'd love to meet you all but the logistics of traffic makes things challenging here in Austin. I prefer to meet on Saturdays for the simple reason that if the meetup is either North or South, it makes for faster commute for everyone involved. We could then alternate locations (N+S).

    That would also allow for easier parking.

    I live SW and zooming up Mopac works great on the weekends. Weekdays, forget about it!! :)

    Hi everyone I would be interested in meeting up for coffee to discuss UX Design. It would be great to meet other designers in IxDF. Summer Moon Coffee in Avery Ranch is a great coffee shop. I'm willing to meet up anywhere between North Austin/ Round Rock area to South Lamar. Prefer not to have to pay for parking. Let me know what times you are thinking.

    Are there two threads going about the meetup today? Another thread says Radio at 4pm today. But there are concerns about parking I guess. Haven't been there yet so not familiar with the situation.

    Hi, everyone! I would love to make a meetup sometime soon, but this Friday doesn't work for me. Hope to catch you at the next one! I live in Lakeway so I try to avoid rush hour as much as possible. :) My schedule is flexible, so I can sometimes meet during the day, and Friday's are generally good.

    During the day on weekdays is a bit difficult for me, but depending on my meeting schedule I might be able to meet for coffee. That Friday it would be easier for me to meetup somewhere up north, maybe in The Domain? Or around that area.

    Hi, Adrienne and Jennifer!

    I'm new in town (been here for all of three months). I would love to get out of my apartment and meet new people!

    I'm free on Friday and can meet up for coffee. I found Mozart's Coffee Roasters. It's an Austin original and suppose to have good parking. Here is the address: 3825 Lake Austin Blvd, Austin, TX 78703.

    Anyone in?

    Jennifer Stewart--I agree with Parking, but luckily in Austin it doesn't seem too bad (at least I have found out that downtown, M-F is free parking, if you can find it.)...but I don't think we will go downtown.

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.

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

  • 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.

Learn Together.
Smile Together

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.
