Add to your calendar:

Hey, IxDF Chicago!

Last meetup was such a good time (with great people) that we’re going to have another!

Join Us This Week on June 4th @ 5:30pm (Central)🗓️


We’ll kick it off with some topics:

  • How to bring UX into your current position?
  • How do I get involved to get experience in UX if I’m a beginner?
  • And for some more advanced folks -- what is the best way to work with stakeholders to make sure UX is a valuable part of the process?

Come with more questions and get ready to meet like-minded folks!

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.

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.
