A meetup for like-minded professionals with an interest in UX.
6TH MARCH AT 18:00 – CANVAS LOFT BAR, BOURNEMOUTH
We meet every quarter to share knowledge, learn from each other, and share stories over a beer or two. Each event consists of three experienced UX professionals speaking for around 25 minutes, plus a few minutes for questions. Before and after the speakers there’s time to mingle at the bar with snacks for everyone. We’d love to see you at the next UX Bournemouth event on 6th March!

A buffet of lovely food from the guys at Lunch’d will be available on the night and this is included in the price of your ticket. We will make sure vegetarians are catered for too.

We had another stellar lineup of speakers, kicked off by a bonus presentation from our very own Damian Rees who took a look at the last decade of UX and digital to mark our 10th birthday as a business.
