Get ready Sydney - this one is going to be special! 🚀

We’re putting on our out of office. For the first time ever, we’re hosting an event outside of a tech company. And trust us, you don’t want to miss this one! Join us on March 27, 2025, at Bungalow8 for an unforgettable night of insights, inspiration, and fun with the Product, Design, and Engineering community.

We’ve teamed up with UserTesting to bring you an evening packed with top-tier talks, networking, games and tacos. And guess what, we don’t need to leave at 9pm. So, you can stay as long as you like, grab a drink, and connect with some of the brightest minds in the industry.

🎤 Meet your speakers and their topics

Louis Granger, VP Asia Pacific at UserTesting
Colour in the blanks: Ditch the guesswork & design with confidence
The best products don’t guess, they test.. and iterate before launch. In this session, Louis will explore how to remove uncertainty from the design process and leap straight to your best version before launch. He’ll unpack how testing with real users can sharpen your vision, eliminate costly missteps, and help you create experiences that are seamless, effective, and built with confidence. Say goodbye to guesswork and hello to a design process that’s bold, confident, and beautifully intentional.

Damian Madden, Experience Architect and Mindful Brand Strategist
Beyond the Brief: Reclaiming the Power of Design
You’re a designer. That means you have the power to shape the way people see, feel and experience the world. But in an industry that increasingly demands speed, efficiency and constant adaptation, it’s easy to lose sight of why you started in the first place. This isn’t just a talk, it’s a wake-up call. A reminder that design is a gift and when you reconnect with the love and intention that brought you here, you don’t just make things - you make meaning. You don’t just follow trends - you create impact. You can change lives. Through stories, insights from art and psychology, and practical shifts in mindset, this talk will help you reignite your creative fire and design in a way that lasts.
