Exploring the past, present, and future of UX design.
Björg Helene Eggen initiated a transformative journey in 2017, co-founding UX People with Emelie Svartling Stjärnborg at a small café in Stockholm. Dedicated to fostering growth among designers globally, regardless of borders or company affiliations, UX People has flourished. With events spanning workshops to international conferences, featuring speakers from renowned companies, the network has expanded to Oslo and London in 2020. The success lies in a competition-free environment, where passionate designers engage in nerdy discussions, creating a joyful and familial atmosphere. Björg expresses gratitude for the support of her workplace and invites all design enthusiasts to join the vibrant UX People community in Stockholm, London, Oslo, through meetups, Slack channels, or the mentor program.
UX people have had inspiring speakers from Google, Tobii, IBM, Adobe XD, GitLab, Twitter, Sony Music Entertainment, Nintendo, LEGO, Sketch, Shopify, Three UK, JPMorgan Chase & Co., HP, TeamViewer, AstraZeneca and many more.
