  1. UX & Product Meetup: A casual networking meetup for any & all folks who work in (or are exploring) the related disciplines of user experience.

  2. UXer & Developer Hangout: An in-person gathering of folks with an interest in experience design and software/web development.

For more information, including how to receive updates, visit this page on Luma: https://lu.ma/ko6ovnpk

In addition the two meetups above, there are a lot of great non-IxDF throughout the day, most related to design or technology. Minnebar is a great opportunity to learn something new and build your network.

Minnebar tickets are required for entry, but they are free. That said, they often โ€˜sell outโ€™ early. We strongly recommend against showing up on the day of the event, expecting to participate, unless you have an official ticket.

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 cafรฉ, 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 cafรฉ 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.
