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.

Meetup Details

Design systems are only as strong as the people, research, and feedback that shape them. In this online meetup, we’ll dive into four key pillars of sustainable, impactful design systems:

  • User Research & Validation: Explore methods for validating decisions across diverse user groups and learn how to create tight feedback loops that keep your system evolving with real-world insights.

  • Measuring Success: Go beyond adoption rates — discover metrics and KPIs that show true user impact and convince leadership of your system’s value.

  • Community & Collaboration: Share strategies for keeping contributors engaged, balancing global standards with local needs, and elevating often-overlooked voices (researchers, QA, accessibility experts).

  • Accessible Design Systems: Discuss whether accessibility should have its own token set or be embedded across all tokens, and see how teams integrate accessibility validation directly into their workflows.

Expect a mix of discussion, sharing, and quick interactive activities. Whether you’re a designer, researcher, developer, or product lead, you’ll leave with practical takeaways and inspiration to improve your design system’s maturity, inclusivity, and business impact.
