Meetup Details

Hi IxDF Newcastle, let's meet up and network over a pint! 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 and researchers. Feel free to invite any friends, family members or colleagues!

Hi all,

Let's give this another shot. We've now got a time and location for what will hopefully be the first(?) official IDF Newcastle meetup.

Jamie (UX Designer at Newcastle University) and I (Head of UX at Status Digital) will be there to welcome you and we'll both be bringing some friends and colleagues who also work in UX (and/or related fields).

We were also talking about maybe setting up a Slack channel for the local UX community. Would like to know if anyone thinks this would be of interest?

Cheers!



David Morton

Hi everyone :)

I'm super new to the IDF world, but I really want to get involved with the community online and offline.

I'll try my best to get along to the meeting on the 7th, but I'm on holiday on the 9th so I can't promise I'll make it until a little closer to the time (I always leave packing to the last minute).

I'd be totally up for a Slack channel, so if that ever comes about, give me a shout.

Look forward to meeting you all.

Cheers
David

Jamie Campbell

Hiya, so I've checked out the venue (albeit inadvertently as I was a week early — I must still have that holiday haze). I'll aim to get there for about 5:45 next week to make sure we get some seats. I've also setup a Slack channel which could be handy for anyone to message ahead of the meetup, or indeed if they need directions. You can join the channel here.

Emma Mulder

Hi all, look forward to meeting you tonight! I'll bring some pens and post-its for some ice breaker exercises. Jamie and I will be waiting for you with a IxDF Meetup Newcastle sign. :-)

Jamie Campbell

Hiya, we're in the billiard room. :-)

Sofia Orellano

Hi @everyone! I’m a UX/UI Designer that has recently moved to Durham and would really like to attend these meetings. Are they still going on? what about the slack channel?

Cheers,

Sofia

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.
