In a world where ideas, possibilities, and inspiration are easier to generate than ever, making a decision can sometimes become the harder part. The Unfinished Decision is an interactive IxDF meetup exploring what happens between generating possibilities and actually choosing a direction particularly as AI continues to reshape how designers think, create, and make decisions.
.
What to Expect:
1. AI & Design - The Unfinished Decision with Sohil
We’ll look beyond the excitement around AI and explore deeper questions about how AI is changing the role of designers.
The session will introduce the idea of “The Unfinished Decision” - when we have more possibilities, more inputs, and more ways to create, but struggle to move from exploring to committing.
.
2. Back to Core with Sachin
We’ll step away from screens and return to the basics. Through a hands on pen and paper sketching and doodling activity, reconnecting with observation, experimentation, creativity, and design thinking. No polished drawings required just curiosity, a pen, and a willingness to create.
.
Come along to:
• Explore how AI is influencing the way designers think and work
• Reflect on the difference between generating possibilities and making decisions
• Meet fellow designers and exchange perspectives
• Step away from digital tools and reconnect with the fundamentals of creativity
• Participate in an interactive, hands-on design activity
• Leave with new questions, ideas, and perspectives to take back into your design practice
Whether you work in UX, product, visual, brand, research, or simply have an interest in design, this meetup is an opportunity to rethink, create, and connect with the design community.

Questions? We've Got Answers
What is an IxDF Local Group and why should I join one?
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.

What goes on in an IxDF Local Group?
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.
I'm not even a designer. Should I still join an IxDF Local Group?
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.
