——————————————————————————————————————————

Join Sydney’s IxDF community at UTS Startups (Ultimo) for a cozy, supportive portfolio workshop night, bring what you’re building (or fixing), get unstuck, and leave with clearer next steps.

This session is hands-on and beginner-friendly, with space for quick intros, light structure, and plenty of time to work. Whether you’re updating your portfolio, assembling a case study, redesigning a page, or starting a DIY project from scratch, you’ll have a room full of designers to bounce ideas with.

✨ What to expect

Quick lightning intros to meet your peers
A short prompt + practical checklist to guide the session
DIY working time (solo + small groups)
Optional peer feedback rounds (kind, constructive, actionable)

💡 You’ll walk away with

Clarity on what to improve next in your portfolio
Practical tips on structure, storytelling, and presentation
New connections across UX, Product, and Research
Momentum (and hopefully fewer “I’ll do it later” tabs open 😄)

👉 Reserve your spot, space is limited. https://luma.com/gu7hc2n3

Note: This is a community workshop, not a formal training. Feel free to bring any portfolio format (PDF, website, Notion, Figma, slides).

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. 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.
