What are Local Groups?

A Local Group is a group of people who, like you, are passionate about design. Local Groups organize meetings to get inspired, have fun and learn from one another.

Meetup Details

Hi IxDF Johannesburg, let’s meet up and network over coffee! Share UX design insights and resources, discuss UX problems you are facing now, or just chat about anything else. It’s going to be an informal, cozy meetup with fellow designers!

Hi all! Please use this discussion thread to discuss Coffee & UX Meet-up held on Jan 31, 2023. Feel free to ask questions about the place, date and time, agenda of the meeting, or anything else.
Geoff Bickford

Hi There, I am a new member of IxDF and delighted to discover this group. What typically takes place at a meet up and could I prepare or bring anything along? Looking forward to meeting you all. Regards Geoff

Andrew Kay

Welcome, Geoff! We're glad to have you join our community. Our meetups are a great opportunity for local IxDF members to connect, share their experiences as aspiring UX/UI designers, and build a sense of connection. There's no need to prepare anything - just bring your positive energy and we'll see you soon!

Xanthe Roux

Hi there, I am new to IxDF and would be interested in joining this meeting to meet some of you.

I am nervous as I am coming into UX design from civil and environmental engineering and from the academic world, so feel like a serious outsider at this stage. But I am excited to connect and learn from you all!

Andrew Kay

Hi Xanthe! Welcome to the community.

Don't be nervous; there are a number of us who are in similar positions. People come from different industries and backgrounds, all with similar ambitions.

It's a great place to ask questions and learn from those who are already in the role.

See you soon!

Daniella EL. Ryninks

Hello!
Looking forward to meeting you all. I might be a bit late but will be there straight after my last session.

Andrew Kay

Hey Daniella! Looking forward to meeting you too. Have a great day!

Mathias Vinyu

Andrew Kay

Hey Mathias! I hope so too, it will be great to connect.

Ngqiliyomzi Solani

Hi Everyone

I’m new here and I wish to join the Coffee UX Meetup.

How does this work :)

Andrew Kay

Hey Ngqiliyomzi, welcome to the community. It’s simple, all you have to do is bring yourself to Bootleggers in Fourways and get to connect with like-minded individuals, no need to prepare anything. See you there!

Andrew Kay

Hey everyone!

I'm looking forward to our Coffee & UX Meet-up tomorrow. Don’t forget it will be a very informal get-together to connect and share with like-minded individuals.

The meetup is in Fourways, here is a Google Maps link for Bootleggers at Design Quarter, click here.

When arriving, follow the road until you see the Trek bicycle store. There is plenty of free parking and it is located right outside Bootleggers.

A table has been reserved inside, look out for the IDF logo on the table.

As always, please shout if you have any questions.

Looking forward to it. 🙌🏼

Thanks Andrew, yesterday’s meetup was great. It was good, chatting and learning from other UXers out there.

We should have more of these.

Meetup attendees

Members can show their interest to attend a meetup by clicking “Attend this meetup” button. In addition, since Local Groups events are open to all, non-members can also attend these meetups.

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meetup (and you’re welcome to do the same), but their non-member friends will not be shown as “attending” because this feature is only available to members.

P.S.: Note that the number of attendees is not an indication of its value! Small meetups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
