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

👋🏽 Hello, IxDF Minneapolis!

This is the second in a series of regular meetups where we can talk about ways that the Interaction Design Foundation can support you, other IxDF members, and the broader UX community. Come & go as you please during the hour. We can keep things casual & informal, but we will still try to gather insights on the topic of “support.”

Google Meet joining info:

  • Video call link here.

  • Or dial: ‪(US) +1 515-207-6252‬ PIN: ‪929 702 371‬#

  • International phone numbers here.

Possible discussion topics:

  • Do you or other members need support with an IxDF course?

  • How can we increase engagement & participation in our online forums?

  • In what ways can IxDF complement the good work of other local UX organizations, or should we collaborate?

As we progress through this series of meetups, we hope that it will become clear what sort of activities, events, and/or forums would be most useful to you and the community. Then we can put energy towards that accordingly.

Also remember: Everyone is welcome at our meetups. You don’t need to be a member of IxDF (the Interaction Design Foundation), and you don’t even need to live in the area. In terms of experience, you can be a seasoned UXer, or you can just be starting your UX journey.

Please post any questions, ideas, or other comments about this meeting below. Or just say hello! We look forward to seeing you online!

Meet-Up Discussion

EJ Makela

Hi all! Please use this discussion thread to discuss the online meetup series, ‘How can we support you & the community?’ to held on Jan 27, 2023. Feel free to ask questions about the place, date and time, agenda of the meeting, or anything else.

Trina Corrao

Hello! I’m interested in attending, but I can’t due to a scheduling conflict. Will you be recording the session for people to view in their own time?

Rothanak Chhoun

I’m not sure about recording capabilities—these sessions are also meant to be rather informal. But thank you for letting us know about your conflict. We are hosting these each Friday at this time, so let me or EJ know whether or not you’d be able to attend in the future, as we are still trying to evaluate the best day/time for this event.

EJ Makela

Hello, everyone. We had a great meetup today. Thanks to those of you who attended. We plan to have at least one more meetup at this same time next week.

If you weren’t able to attend because 3:00 CT on Fridays doesn’t work with your schedule, please let us know your preferred days/times so we can accommodate you! We intend to have some meetups at different times, and your feedback would help to guide us.

Finally, as I mentioned in the session, IxDF Minneapolis also has a Slack workspace. Click/tap here to join. It’s a pretty quiet space right now, but if you like to communicate with people on those sorts of forums, please sign up so we can get one step closer to building a vibrant community.

Anessa Andersland

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.
