UX Copenhagen

2014 -

I came up with the idea of creating conferences about User Experience and Design in Copenhagen in 2014, and launched the first one in March 2015. Next year's conference will be on March 30-31st, and the theme is "Influence & Designing For Good". We hope to see you in Copenhagen for two days full of exciting and inspirational talks and workshops! https://uxcopenhagen.com.

Founder

Sep 13 - Present

I am the founder of this informal LinkedIn group for sharing UX knowledge. We take turns hosting a workshop or presentation about six times a year. The sessions are always free, however I do like to know how many people will be attending so there is enough cake.

At each meeting, a different UX methodology will be presented and tried. Afterwards, there will be a group discussion about the method, and about our findings.

Before ending the two-hour meeting, we will find our next topic, presenter, and meeting place. If you have any suggestions for topics, or if you have a topic you would like to present, please don't hesitate to contact me!
