“Driven by purpose, not profit. We don’t have KPI’s and financial targets, it’s just not the MRJ way. Instead we're simply motivated by inspiring talent, changing lives and making a difference.” Jody Marks, MD

FutureGovRealUX is local meetup in Manchester for everyone interested in UX and the digital industry.
During our informal meetups, we explore the UX process behind an app or website developed by a Manchester-based company, looking at both what worked and what hasn’t during the designing and implementing process. We also discuss a range of issues beyond UX that concern digital businesses and we have inspiring lightning talks as well so you are encouraged to learn and reflect during these sessions.

We're a monthly User Centred Design meetup based in Bristol. We hold talks and workshops on topics relating to design and research across disciplines including everything from UX, graphic design, service design to 3D and more. The meetup is sponsored by Natural Interaction and People For Research
UX research - in its many forms - is as vital to the success of a product or experience as it ever has been. In an increasingly data-led world, we can't simply reduce audiences to numbers on a screen or a set of interactions in a data-set. It only tells half the story! For any company - from enterprise to SME - to be successful, we have to understand why audiences act the way they do and to do that, we have to look beyond the data and engage them on a more personal level. The Power of UX Research group is dedicated to discussing the power of user research and user-focused design through case studies, change stories and discussing different methods that result in rewarding omni-channel experiences. If you're a dedicated researcher, a creator of intuitive and audience-tailored experiences or just wanting to know more, we want you to be part of the conversation!
