UX Folks v.1

We are a group of UX designers from different companies who wants to be a reason to connect UXers to learn from each other and have fun.

UX Folks is like a user centered, content driven Lego bricks. We curate our events with the units already defined, by analyzing audience needs and sparks from the local scene.

Our team includes designers from Fjord, ThoughtWorks, IBM, Insider, Invest In Turkey, YapiKredi and Turkcell who has organised impactful events such as OpenIDEO Istanbul Chapter, TED Talks, PechaKucha Nights, Maker Faires, SDN Global Jams before.

We put our experience by thinking beyond "Design Thinking" to build customized open events with glocal inspirations.
