UX Meetup (CHANGED TO THE 20.9.)

Add to your calendar:

Hi IxDF Perth,

don't forget to put friday into your calendars, fellow IDFers.

We will catch up at DÔME Café - Deep Water Point - as there is a little library in the back, which I thought might be quite suitable for us "students". This meetup will be a 'meet and greet' and a brainstorm for topics you would like to go through (or maybe even giving a little presentation yourself) for future meetups. It's going to be an informal, cozy meetup

There is plenty of parking as well as the Canning Bridge train station close by. Car pooling would be another great idea.

I can't wait to meet you all, see you there ;)

    Thanks for organising Maike :-)

    I am currently away for work so will not be able to attend this meetup!

    Friends, Maike and I did discuss holding another meet up next month, a morning one before work to allow those who may not be able to attend this meet up, to come along to the next. We will keep you posted on Octobers meet up details.

    Enjoy, Kat Penno

    Hi Perthianer :) No worries, happy to organise, especially for such a great community and this kinda background. It was just a pre-filled date to be honest hahaha I can move it to the 20. September though which is a friday too, if more people want to attend?!

    Is everyone member in the IDF facebook group as well? The communication might be easier there then.

    Hi Everyone,

    I'm so glad that a meetup is being organized (Thank you Maike).

    I'm a newbie to the IxDF community and to UX as well and for that I'm super keen on attending this event, getting to know you all and learning more from each other. I would love to hear more details about location and time.

    - Ivy

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 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 cafe can ignite collaborations and friendships that last a lifetime.

  • You don't have to be a designer, just passionate about great design and how it can improve your work and career. Design skills make you valuable - in any job and any industry.

  • You'll also have a private and exclusive online forum where you can openly get help and career advice.

  • We help each other find new career opportunities and jobs.

  • We also host more formal workshops to share knowledge and learn from each other, e.g., case studies, success stories and practical experiences.

  • 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

In a world that's getting more artificial, lonely, and competitive, IxDF brings the heart back.

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.
