What are Local Groups?
Local Groups will expand your career network—whether you are interested in learning new skills, finding job opportunities or looking for a new employee.
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.

Meet-Up Details

Hi IxDF Toronto, 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 meet-up with fellow designers!

Marina Morozova

Hi fellow Toronto members! Can I assume most people are looking for a place to meet near a subway stop, or prefer driving?

If TTC, I can suggest cafes along the Bloor West line, or closer to Spadina/King centre. Where are most people coming from?

Thanks

Mumin Mian

Hi everyone! I'm just a student looking to learn about UX design and break into the field eventually, would it be okay for me to attend? I'd love to get some insight from the professionals.

This is an old post (2014) but pretty relevant to help this meetup zero-in on a location.

Selection Criteria:

  1. By a subway stop for access
  2. Extra space for 19+ patrons arriving at once

Hi neighbors, I may come in from Buffalo for this. Right now our UX community is relatively small in Buffalo; I would love to meet some other people in my industry!

Andrew Mair

Any movement on a location for this?

Kritika Rao

Hi Guys. Any updates on the place and time??

Andrew Mair

I say someone should suggest a possible location. I realize it's a coffee group, but few places could handle the influx of 26 people. Perhaps a quiet pub would work better for such a large group? More convivial as well. Just a thought.

Sandra

Hey guys! Have we decided on where to meet yet?


Vinh Huynh

How many people are coming? if the weather is nice we should meet outside somewhere like queens park? we can walk up along philosopher's walk and head to the Tim Horton's at Bedford and Bloor?

I don't drink but there are a ton of pubs in that location so we can spill into one afterwards.


Andrew Mair

hello all.

There doesn’t appear to be much movement on this meet-up as far as time and location goes.

Might I suggest joining the UXPA meet up May 14 at Paupers Pub from 7-10. Not sure if you have to be a member, just let them know you’re attending so they can plan for it.

You should join the UXPA anyway, as it is the local body for all UX professionals in the GTA and it is very reasonable to join.

Here’s the link.

Thanks Andrew, I've marked my calendar. I'm definitely coming to that.

Sandra

how’s about the Drake at Queen & Dovercourt?


A) they’ve got a great patio, cafe and also lounge that’ll accommodate us.

B) no affiliation with the singer/rapper

Queen West is the Art and Design district of Toronto, how suiting

Alina Grebenyuk

So folks, any word on where abouts are we meeting tomorrow? I've been looking forward to the meet up for two weeks now.

Andrew Mair

I’m kind of disappointed the leads on this didn’t come through with a time and place.

Meet-up attendees

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

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meet-up (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 meet-ups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
