日本語のご案内はこちら

Overview

Spectrum Tokyo is a community that wishes to bring the global design scene closer to the Japanese locals. But not only learning from overseas, we also work to reveal the local Japanese design scene to the world at the same time.

We are holding a small cozy discussion session on Business and Design, together with a guest; Aldrich Huang from UXTesting.io / Savvy UX Summit. The purpose is to exchange insights from both global and local design scenes through casual discussions.

This meetup will be a smaller crowd than usual, around 10-15 people, and we will gather around an indoor camping site and sit around a (virtual) fireplace for a cozy fireside chat. We hope that you come relaxed, get to know each other, and enjoy the conversation.
