Hi IxDF Southampton, 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!

Meetup Conversation

Hi all! Please use this conversation thread to discuss New Year 2025 - Coffee and UX Meetup held on Jan 18, 2025. Feel free to ask questions about the place, date and time, agenda of the meeting, or anything else.

Hey Katja, Any more details on this event please? Thanks K

Hey Karl, nice to meet you :) Not yet, I need to find a cafe spot where we can meet. Have you arranged meet ups in Southampton before and is there any location you aware of that is best? Thanks, Katja

The first one I arranged for Southampton was online for this group. There are many places - I shall add some suggestions… I love the idea of building a UX Community in Southampton :)

Hi Karl ah awesome, that is great too. Yeah I thought it would be a great idea to find some other designers (visual, UX or other specialities) and meet up in person.

I was thinking maybe we can meet at the Mettricks, there are a few locations. Or Muse cafe on London road. There are a few options :)

Hi guys, I’d be interested in taking part in a UX community in Southampton!

Hey Matthew, that sounds great, looking forward meeting you. I finally added a cafe / address, which I think is a good central spot to meet. Katja

Hey all, I have added the Mettricks Guildhall for Saturday. I hope that is an okay location for you all to join me.

I have made a booking (which isnt confirmed yet) for 8, as I am not sure how many non-members turn up, so fingers crossed, that is enough space for us for the first meeting.

I am looking forward to meeting you,

Katja

Not sure I’ll be able to make tomorrow as I’ve been ill today but how often are these meet ups organised?

Oh I am sorry to hear you have not been well. Hope you get better soon.
Well this is the first one, depending on how much show up tomorrow, maybe I organise one in February again. Or we could do once a quarter.

I am open for suggestions and what works best :)

Hey everyone, I am making my way to the café now, hope to meet you Karl and Iris, and maybe Matthew and maybe some others. I was not able to print the meet up page today, and hope you can find me.

I will try and sit downstairs visible (I am wearing a grey shirt and black trousers).

Looking forward, Katja
