East Africa Designers Connect Meetup
About Event
East Africa Designers Connect Meetup
A gathering for designers, across every discipline.
Design in East Africa is happening everywhere in product teams, in studios, in classrooms, in freelance setups run from a laptop and a good chair. What’s missing is the room where we all sit down together.
EADC exists to build that room.
We’re a new community platform for designers across the region product designers, brand and graphic designers, illustrators, motion designers, UX researchers, design educators, and students on their way in. Our conviction is simple: design gets better when designers talk to each other, and the East African design story deserves to be told by the people living it.
Who should come
Anyone who designs. Junior or senior, employed, freelance, or still studying. Whether you spend your days in Figma, in Illustrator, in research notes, or in front of a class if design is your work, this is your room.
What to expect
- Three focused talks from working practitioners
- Live Q&A with each speaker
- A future-of-design discussion, open to the floor
- Time to actually meet people the part that matters most
